Libraries listed in this guide may not have been updated to work with the latest version of React Navigation. Please refer to the library's documentation to see which version of React Navigation it supports.

Solutions built on top of React Navigation

Community libraries

react-native-screens

This project aims to expose native navigation container components to React Native and React Navigation can integrate with it since version 2.14.0. Using react-native-screens brings several benefits, such as support for the "reachability feature" on iOS, and improved memory consumption on both platforms.

react-navigation-header-buttons

Helps you to render buttons in the navigation bar and handle the styling so you don't have to. It tries to mimic the appearance of native navbar buttons and attempts to offer a simple interface for you to interact with.

Demo on expo

react-navigation-props-mapper

Provides simple HOCs that map react-navigation props to your screen components directly - ie. instead of const user = this.props.route.params.activeUser, you'd write const user = this.props.activeUser.
