expo + react-native: There was a problem sending log messages

I am building a react-native app that I recently moved to expo. The app seems to display the expected screen, but before it completes, I am receiving the following error message: console.error: "There was a problem sending log messages to your development environment, {"name": "Error"}". When I view the expo browser screen I see the following stack trace when I click on the device:

  node_modules/expo/build/logs/LogSerialization.js:146:14 in _captureConsoleStackTrace  node_modules/expo/build/logs/LogSerialization.js:41:24 in Object.serializeLogDataAsync$  node_modules/regenerator-runtime/runtime.js:62:39 in tryCatch  node_modules/regenerator-runtime/runtime.js:288:21 in Generator.invoke [as _invoke]  node_modules/regenerator-runtime/runtime.js:114:20 in Generator.prototype.(anonymous  node_modules/regenerator-runtime/runtime.js:62:39 in tryCatch  node_modules/regenerator-runtime/runtime.js:152:19 in invoke  node_modules/regenerator-runtime/runtime.js:187:10 in <unknown>  node_modules/promise/setimmediate/core.js:45:4 in tryCallTwo  node_modules/promise/setimmediate/core.js:200:12 in doResolve

Here is a screenshot of the error:

What does this error mean? I found some doc referring to removing console.log statements and removed the ones I had but that did not help.
