Validate the diagnostic

Confirm the reported code matches this rule before you edit it.

Confirm the reported code matches react-doctor/rn-platform-shaking-use-direct-import. Compare it with the Before example and verify the same API, framework, and execution context. Treat it as a false positive only when one of those conditions differs.

Compare the code

The corrected pattern shows a focused way to address the diagnostic.

Reported pattern

import * as ReactNative from "react-native";

const styles = ReactNative.Platform.select({
  ios: iosStyles,
  android: androidStyles,
});

Corrected pattern

import { Platform } from "react-native";

const styles = Platform.select({ ios: iosStyles, android: androidStyles });

How to fix

Use the corrected pattern as a reference. Preserve behavior that the rule does not require you to change.

Copyable fix prompt

Copy this self-contained prompt into your coding agent after you confirm the diagnostic.

Fix every confirmed react-doctor/rn-platform-shaking-use-direct-import diagnostic in the current repository. Required change: - Import Platform directly with import { Platform } from "react-native" so Expo can remove code for the other platform.

Reference transformation:Before:

import * as ReactNative from "react-native";

const styles = ReactNative.Platform.select({
  ios: iosStyles,
  android: androidStyles,
});

After:

import { Platform } from "react-native";

const styles = Platform.select({ ios: iosStyles, android: androidStyles });

Constraints: - Confirm the reported code matches the Before pattern. - Make the smallest change that fixes the root cause. - Preserve behavior and interfaces unrelated to this diagnostic. - Reuse existing project components, utilities, and conventions. - Do not introduce render-phase side effects, render-phase state updates, or Hooks rule violations. - Adapt identifiers and framework details instead of copying blindly. - Do not disable the rule or suppress matching code. - Confirm this rule is enabled for the project: expo:54. Verification: - Run focused tests for the changed behavior. - Run React Doctor and confirm this diagnostic no longer appears. - Report the files changed and any checks you could not run.

react-doctor/rn-prefer-content-inset-adjustment: Drop the SafeAreaView wrapper and set `contentInsetAdjustmentBehavior="automatic"` on the ScrollView for native safe-area handling
react-doctor/rn-prefer-expo-image: Use `<Image>` from `expo-image` instead of `react-native` — same prop API, plus disk + memory caching, placeholders, and crossfades
react-doctor/rn-prefer-pressable: Use `<Pressable>` from react-native (or react-native-gesture-handler) instead of legacy Touchable* components
react-doctor/rn-prefer-pressable-over-gesture-detector: Replace tap-only `<GestureDetector>` with `<Pressable>`: <Pressable onPress={onPress}> or createCSSAnimatedComponent(Pressable) for animated press feedback
react-doctor/rn-prefer-reanimated: Use `import Animated from 'react-native-reanimated'` — animations run on the UI thread instead of the JS thread
