Solution 2:

I had the same problem and after searching I found this command:

npm -g uninstall expo-cli --save

finally expo-cli is deleted from my pc but it still asks about it every time I type create-react-native-app. if anybody knows how to go on from here be my guest.

and I hope this helps you

edit: if you use react-native init it is almost the same as create-react-native-app without expo-cli. This is how I chose to carry on as using the create command with expo-cli gives the application error after error if you install any api.

Solution 3:

npm -g uninstall expo-cli --save did not work for me, but yarn global remove expo-cli did.

I expected the npm option to work, and was surprised when it didn't. I am using nvm, and wonder if this answer explains why the npm option didn't work for me.

Solution 4:
