I want to add TouchID / FingerprintScanner support to an app that I'm developing with [email protected]+ and all packages that I use I cannot link the dependencies to it via react-native link (or even without package-name...).
I'm running it via 'create-react-native-app' and using Expo Client.
Any thoughts / help?

You can use Expo's fingerprint reader library in ejected apps too. I explained it here https://stackoverflow.com/a/64929151/7477198
Or it is possible to use libraries like https://github.com/hieuvp/react-native-fingerprint-scanner#readme

Its worth pointing out that Expo supports fingerprint scanning with their LocalAuthentication module. There's an example snack available in their documentation

i think you shoud detach expo.
working with Expo gives you lots of benefit... but deeper you want to achieve, Expo will make you struggle.
I suggest you to deatch Expo and work with libraries like
https://github.com/naoufal/react-native-touch-id or https://github.com/hieuvp/react-native-fingerprint-scanner
