Alert dialog doesn't show on a built apk

[jgoodgfs]

I’ve tried importing the alert module from react native

import { Alert } from 'react-native'
Alert.alert( " Wish this worked :( " )

and expo.

import { Alert } from 'expo'
Alert.alert( " Or this ): " )

But neither will show the dialog on a built apk. Within the expo client the alerts will show for ios and android.

This error showed up, in sentry, when testing on a physical device

TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'u.Alert.alert')
  at ? ([native code])

Same issue here

There are two way which works in both.

1. import { Alert } from ‘react-native’;

   Alert.alert(
   ‘Title’,
   ’ Description’,
   [
   {
   text: ‘Yes’, onPress: () => { onPress: () => { console.log('Okay Pressed ok Alert ‘) } }
   },
   { text: ‘No’, onPress: () => { console.log(’ Pressed No Alert ') } },
   ],
   { cancelable: false }
   )

2. alert(‘Description’)

Neither of those method signatures work on a built native binary, only when running the code in the expo client.
