TTS engines null

[lucija1]

Hello,

I cloned and set up this repo, but when I try to run the application I get an error that TTS engines should not be null.
Am I missing a step in the project setup or was something deprecated since this project was finished?

I am on Windows, using Android Emulator to test the app and I am starting it with "expo start -c".

Error: TypeError: null is not an object (evaluating 'TextToSpeech.engines') and it is happening in Api#setSpeechEngine.
