I am getting null is not an object (evaluating 'RNInAppBrowser')

[nihp]

I have linked the RNInAppBrowser manually and it showing the error as "null is not an object (evaluating 'RNInAppBrowser')

Also If I run pod install it shows below error. But the RNInAppBrowser automatically shows in the pod file. I not added it manually.

[!] CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "RNInAppBrowser":
In Podfile:
RNInAppBrowser (from ../node_modules/react-native-inappbrowser-reborn)

Specs satisfying the RNInAppBrowser (from ../node_modules/react-native-inappbrowser-reborn) dependency were found, but they required a higher minimum deployment target.

Okay. I have tried the example project which is given in your README. I also tried the openLink from this method and I am getting the above error as below in expo and

What version of Xcode are you using?

[nihp]

I am using Xcode 10.1. Why it not worked in expo?

[jdnichollsc]

Because you can't use native plugins from Expo 🤔

Why it not worked in expo?

Check here: https://docs.expo.io/versions/v35.0.0/introduction/faq/

Managed Expo projects don't support custom native code, including third-party libraries which require custom native components. In a managed project, you only write JavaScript.

Try the last version 3.3.3! 👍

[iOS] I'm still having this issue
LOG [TypeError: null is not an object (evaluating 'RNInAppBrowser.isAvailable'

@anagar23 @devecstatic instead of put bad reactions, I invite you to attach the code of your project or send a link of your repository, have a happy new year! 👍

[EthanLipnik]

Nevermind, I figured it out. I was adding it to a third party NPM when I should be also adding it to the client

@jdnichollsc I'm having the same issue. RN: 0.61.5

async openLink() {
    console.log('@browser: ', InAppBrowser);
    try {
      await InAppBrowser.isAvailable();
      InAppBrowser.open('https://www.google.com', {
        // iOS Properties
        dismissButtonStyle: 'cancel',
        preferredBarTintColor: 'gray',
        preferredControlTintColor: 'white',
        // Android Properties
        showTitle: true,
        toolbarColor: '#6200EE',
        secondaryToolbarColor: 'black',
        enableUrlBarHiding: true,
        enableDefaultShare: true,
        forceCloseOnRedirection: true,
      }).then(result => {
        Alert.alert(JSON.stringify(result));
      });
    } catch (error) {
      Alert.alert(error.message);
    }
  }

@sadikyalcin as far as I know, this happens when Autolinking is not working as expected, can you try linking manually and let me know if this fix that problem?
Thanks in advance!
