Thi is related to Android SDK 34 where you must explicitly specify export behaviour for broadcasts. It was fixed in RN however this library doesn't seem to be updated.

I've fixed it by updating it manually. You can try using this patch:

Thanks for the answer, that really helped !!

[ajaybor0]

Thanks for the answer, that helped me as well!!

[domabyte]

Yeah, it helps but now after downloading the file, my app crash

[ajaybor0]

it's working fine for me.

[Subramanyarao11]

Same, the file gets downloaded but right after that the app crashes with the same error One of RECEIVER_EXPORTED or RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED should be specified when a receiver isn't being registered exclusively for system broadcasts

[Subramanyarao11]

Yeah, it helps but now after downloading the file, my app crash

Did you find any solution?

[domabyte]

Due to lack of information and for quick need, i ditch using rn-fetch-blob and start using react-native-fs, and it's working perfectly

[befaster]

I updated to 0.74.2 - now there is no red screen but the app is like close

[miradario]

I have changed the tagetSDKVersion = 33 and it works for me

[befaster]

@miradario thanks. I just seems finally was able to fix it. The advice maybe which can help. I chanage packages which was hardcode vesion. I mean for example "abc-package": "x.x.x" to"abc-package": "^x.x.x". Not sure it can help but maybe you can find this way the problem library.

Yes, there's a lot of breakage in targetSDKVersion 34, it's good if we just rely on 33
