compiling js is always cached error after installing asyncstorage react native expo

i am kinda new to React Native and i am using expo, I am followint a course and during one lecture the teacher uses the package asyncstorage for cache topics. Everything worked fine the data was cached and I fetched the data without any issues. For some reason I wanted to go back how my app was before installing the package so I just commented out all the code that handles caching. I saved the file and the simulator doesn’t update it’s still fetching the data from the cache, I tried so many things like: resetting the chage, installing node again but nothing seems to work is like that file is protected or cached forever no matter what I do doesn’t reflect the changes in the simulator.
What drives me crazy is that if I add some console.log or new code those changes take effect but the data keeps coming from the cache.

here is the full code:

import { create } from 'apisauce';
import cache from '../utility/cache';
import AsyncStorage from '@react-native-async-storage/async-storage';

    const apiClient = create({
        baseURL: 'http://192.168.0.5:9000/api'
    });

    // const clearData = async () => {
    //     try {
    //         await AsyncStorage.clear();
    //         console.log('Cleared AsyncStorage');
    //     } catch (e) {
    //         console.error('Failed to clear AsyncStorage', e);
    //     }
    // };
    // clearData();

  // Changing the implementation of a method
    // const get = apiClient.get;
    // apiClient.get = async (url, params, axiosConfig) => {
    //     // Before
    //     const response = await get(url, params, axiosConfig);
    //     console.log('response => ', response);
    //     if (response.ok) {
    //         cache.store(url, response.data);
    //         return response;
    //     }

    //     // After
    //     const data = await cache.get(url);
    //     return data ? { ok: true, data } : response;
    // };

export default apiClient;
(all the commented code for the first time worked nicely, but then If I deleted them or just commented them in not working it’s like it is protected)

I do not know why is this happening, I was enjoying learning React Native but these things … are the worst part of the journey.

Here is the versions I am using:

     "dependencies": {
        "@react-native-async-storage/async-storage": "1.17.11",
        "@react-native-community/masked-view": "^0.1.11",
        "@react-native-community/netinfo": "9.3.7",

        "@react-navigation/native": "^5.9.8",
        "@react-navigation/stack": "^5.14.9",
        "apisauce": "^1.1.1",
        "expo": "~48.0.18",

  },```

Like I said: deleting node again, cleaning the cache with all the commands that are out there for expo cli
