Trying to run expo local server and its telling me that I dont have development build installed?

I am lost, because I don’t know why I am being asked to create a local development build to run my expo app in ios simulator, because I never needed build to run it.

I simply ran command npm start and then pressed i to open my ios simulator without ever facing issues, but for some reason now I am being asked to install development build on the device first.

Here is the error:

 Opening on iOS...
CommandError: No development build (com.checka.myappnative) for this project is installed. Please make and install a development build on the device first.

My question is why can’t i simply run my ios simulator like I always could, what changed?
