Expo Face Detector has been removed from Expo Go

Why

It used dependencies that were not migrated to ARM64 architecture and were a blocker on migrating Expo Go to ARM iOS simulators.

How to use it

To use this functionality, you'll have to create a development build or prebuild using npx expo run:android|ios commands.

Prebuilding

Before a native app can be compiled, the native source code must be generated. Expo CLI provides a unique and powerful system called prebuild, which generates the native code for your project including installed native dependencies like expo-face-detector. Learn more about prebuilding

To run the application on Android:

npx expo install expo-face-detector
npx expo run:android 
npx expo install expo-face-detector
npx expo run:ios

Development builds and EAS Build

If you can't run iOS applications locally, you can still use EAS Build and development builds.
