TypeError: system.element(...).toExist is not a function

What happened?
According to the documentation, I can use await system.element(by.system.label('Allow')).toExist(); to assert that the alert exsist, however when I called exactly that, I got an error system.element(...).toExist is not a function. I also couldn't find any type definition for the toExist function.
What was the expected behaviour?
await system.element(by.system.label('Allow')).toExist(); should work as expected
Was it tested on latest Detox?
- I have tested this issue on the latest Detox release and it still reproduces.
Did your test throw out a timeout?
- I have followed the instructions under Identifying which synchronization mechanism causes us to wait too much.
Help us reproduce this issue!

You're right. This is a mistake in the docs, you should rewrite this with expect(...).toExist().
For instance:
await expect(system.element(by.system.label('Allow'))).toExist();We will update the docs, thanks.
