The Expo preview runs directly in the workspace inside a device frame. You can interact with the app as if it were running on a real device: tap, scroll, and navigate. Switch between device and desktop views anytime.
To run on real hardware, scan the preview's QR code with the Expo Go app on your iPhone or Android phone. The app live-reloads on the device as you build. When you're ready for the stores, see Publishing to app stores.
