What is expo-ui?

Framework (OSS). Build native UI with the @expo/ui package: real SwiftUI on iOS and Jetpack Compose on Android rendered from React in an Expo or React Native app. Covers universal cross-platform components (Host, Column, Row, Button, Text, List, and more imported from @expo/ui), drop-in replacements for popular React Native community libraries (BottomSheet, DateTimePicker, Slider, Menu, etc.), and platform-specific SwiftUI (@expo/ui/swift-ui, iOS only) and Jetpack Compose (@expo/ui/jetpack-compose, Android only) trees and modifiers. Use when adding or reviewing @expo/ui Host/RNHostView trees, building native-feeling UI where standard React Native components fall short (grouped settings forms with toggles, sections, menus, sheets, pickers, sliders), choosing between universal and platform-specific components, or replacing an RN community UI library with a native @expo/ui equivalent. Not for custom native modules, Expo Router navigation, Reanimated, or data fetching.

Expo UI (@expo/ui)

@expo/ui renders real native UI from React: SwiftUI on iOS, Jetpack Compose on Android. Start with its universal components (one tree for iOS, Android, and web) and drop to platform-specific SwiftUI/Jetpack Compose only when the universal layer falls short. It also ships drop-in replacements for migrating off RN community UI libraries.

These instructions track the latest Expo SDK. The universal layer requires SDK 56+. Drop-in replacements and the platform-specific layers also exist on SDK 55. For component details on a specific SDK, refer to the Expo UI docs for that version.

Installation

npx expo install @expo/ui

On SDK 56, @expo/ui works in Expo Go, so npx expo start runs it directly — no custom build required. On older SDKs, build a dev client first (npx expo run:ios / npx expo run:android).

Every @expo/ui tree — universal or platform-specific — must be wrapped in Host.
