How do I update npm packages in Expo

In my regular React Native projects, I run npm update {package-name} regularly to make sure my libraries are up-to-date. For example, I use a third party user authentication package and want to make sure that I use the latest stable version.

What is the Expo equivalent of npm update?

I understand using expo install {package-name} has an advantage over npm i {package-name} in that it makes sure the installed version of the package will be compatible with Expo SDK the app is using. That's why I'm reluctant to run npm update {package-name} and want to put Expo in the equation.

How do I update my npm packages in my Expo app?

I was facing the same issue while working on the react application.Facing issue in react SDK version, I had updated the SDK version to latest one but dependencies were exist the older one. I recommond to avoid the this developer can prefer below command:

npm update

this will automatically update to your project with latest or required compatble versions for all dependencies.

post that you also verify this to inside your package.json file.

Thanks for reading this.. kudos to all developer...

Just because this was the first result on google. The correct way (at least today) is: npx expo install --fix

expo only updates the third packages with the core update of expo sdk, so you have to wait to ensure the compatibily.
