Hi, thanks for the report!
I think this is a bug with Expo: app.json is an Expo tool, and Expo does say Android 6+ should be supported: https://docs.expo.dev/versions/latest/config/app/#orientation.
That said, I don't think we're likely to remove the orientation configuration in order to support Android 8; older Android support isn't often a priority for us. Maybe we should raise the minSdkVersion in the template instead. @frankcalise do you have thoughts on this?
@lindboe Agree, if this is just configuration needed for a specific project, then it should just be that. Maybe a discussion thread or recipe page on better support for Android 8.0?
But looking at that stack overflow, is it possible to address such an issue with a specific version of styles.xml? Because we do have a config plugin setting windowIsTranslucent
to address an Android 12 issue.
So maybe we can achieve this with a more tailored plugin?

Describe the bug
The app crashes immediately with an IllegalStateException: Only fullscreen opaque activities can request orientation
This is caused by the portrait in the Android Manifest, that is set in the app.json:
See: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48072438/java-lang-illegalstateexception-only-fullscreen-opaque-activities-can-request-o for reference.
Removing the orientation from the app.json solves this issue.
