As it was in my case, sometimes, adding the version numbers in the **app.json** codes doesnt seem to work. To solve the issue, I let Expo handle that automatically for me. To do that, simply add:
"autoIncrement": true
to the build section inside the **eas.json** file. For instance, in my own case, that part of the file looked like this:
"build": { "development": { "developmentClient": true, "distribution": "internal" }, "preview": { "distribution": "internal", "android":{ "buildType": "app-bundle" }, "autoIncrement": true }, "production": { "autoIncrement": true }
The one under `production` is automatically added. I added the one under `preview` to solve the issue. Hope this helps someone.
