Expo Go:

Development build:

Steps to reproduce

1. Set up a repository with expo go
2. Set up react-native
3. Add lucide-react-native
4. Import an icon and use it
5. Launch via Expo Go in IOS simulator, notice icons are working

for me icons are giving an error on android build but no error (No ViewManager defined for class RNSVGCircle) in expo, in both i cant see the icons

I was having the same issue; after clearing the ios folder and rebuilding, as well as closing / reopening the app after the build ended up resolving it for me.

I'm having the same issue, doing what @prescarlton suggested didn't fix it for me.

EDIT: it started working after I did the following:

• Installed lucide-react-native and react-native-svg with npm rather than npx expo
• Ran npm dedupe
• Deleted ios directory and .expo directory and rebuilt app

EDIT: it started working after I did the following:

* Installed `lucide-react-native` and `react-native-svg` with npm rather than npx expo

* Ran `npm dedupe`

* Deleted ios directory and .expo directory and rebuilt app

worked for me.
(no need to delete ios folder if you don't have one, like in my case)
