Hello I am new at React Native and in my application I am trying to scan ble devices and list their names on screen. In code sources people most commonly create a Bluetooth Low Energy Manager as const manager = new BleManager();
but when I tried this code (and of course other ways too) it gives error like
TypeError: null is not an object (evaluating '_BleModule.BleModule.createClient')
This error is located at:

Here is my code that I tried to create a manager:
import { StatusBar } from 'expo-status-bar';
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, Text, View } from 'react-native';
import { BleManager } from 'react-native-ble-plx';
const HelloWorldApp = () => {
const manager = new BleManager();
I cannot solve where is my mistake. Please anyone can help me to solve this issue?
Note: I also installed ble-plx package using npm install --save react-native-ble-plx
command.
Note2:I created my project using expo.
You might need to ask the user for permission before using Bluetooth. Add these to your android-manifest.xml :
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.bluetooth" android:required="true"/>
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.bluetooth_le" android:required="true"/>
