Expo SDK 58 beta: test iOS 27 scenes and agent CLI before leaving 57

UpdatedSeptember 17, 2026

Expo published the SDK 58 beta on 15 September 2026. The beta runs three to four weeks — enough to learn whether iOS 27 scene lifecycle, React Native 0.88 RC, fingerprint defaults, and the new agent-facing CLI break your AppDelegate customizations, config plugins, and agent runbooks.

Do not treat @next as a silent production pin. Keep one branch, one checklist, one owner, and a hard rule that coding agents may not bump production to SDK 58 beta without that gate passing.

This is an excerpt. Read the full post at otf-kit.dev/blog/expo-sdk-58-beta-upgrade-gate — full-stack kits your AI coding agent can actually ship to production. Browse the kits →
