Every time I open a React Native app with Expo, I get this massive message in the console with meta data about the app, that doesn't actually do much to help me debug. Especially because it's the same info every time, and it shows up every time the app reloads (even with hot or live reloading):

- Unfortunately, no! I suppose it would be possible to write a script to hide this, but I haven’t taken the time. And Expo have not provided any answer on their forums. – Jackson Holiday Wheeler Commented May 25, 2019 at 10:46

Reset to default 2I solved a similar problem by adding to the project root:
const ignoreConsoleMessages = [
'Running "main" with'
]
const origLog = console.log
console.log = (...params) => (
typeof params[0] === 'string' &&
ignoreConsoleMessages.reduce((acc, i) => acc + ~params[0].indexOf(i), 0)
? null
: origLog(...params)
)
I'm not familiar with Expo, but I encountered this log message recently with a vanilla RN project. I was able to remove it by adding the following to my index file:
console.ignoredYellowBox = ['react-native BugReporting extraData:'];
