Expo Router app opens on the second tab
ExpoConfirmed fix
Expo SDK 57, expo-router 57.0.24
There is no error message for this one, only the symptom in the title.
Cause
Round-bracket groups do not appear in the URL, so (exercises)/index.tsx is also /, competing with the first tab's index.
Fix
Only one tab group gets an index.tsx; name the others' screens (exercises.tsx).
