import CheckBox from '@react-native-community/checkbox'; does not work

[AnjanaPathirana99]

import CheckBox from '@react-native-community/checkbox';

This import statement does not work with Expo environment.

Error received,

"Invariant Violation: requireNativeComponent: "AndroidCheckBox" was not found in the UIManager."

This is happening with my project as well.

"@react-native-community/checkbox": "^0.5.17",
"expo": "50.0.8",
"react-native": "0.73.4",

@AnjanaPathirana99 It looks like that Expo has an alternative for this. There is an Expo Checkbox component (https://docs.expo.dev/versions/latest/sdk/checkbox/). Idk if u r using Expo too, but that seems to solve the problem according to this article on StackOverflow (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69871889/expo-sdk43-androidcheckbox-was-not-found-in-the-uimanager)

@matheusgomessouza Yes. You are right. I too used the same package from

npx expo install expo-checkbox

And it worked for me as well. 😊
