Hi @antonbrock

In addition to what @saracen9 said, perhaps have a look at this thread (although I would not recommend the chmod 777 ... suggested in one of the comments.)

IOS Simulator hangs installing expo

I had the same problem, and the cause was that my users/username/.expo as well as my project/.expo folders were owned by root, this was because I installed expo as root. (This already gave some problems earlier where running start expo didn’t work without root privilege) What solved it for me was to just remove both of those .expo folders and then run start expo again without root privilege this time. @justinj
