Native linking API


What is Native linking API?

React Native link is an intuitive way of installing native dependencies. It is an alternative to manually linking the dependence in your project. It works for both Android and iOS.

Linking API enables you to both send and receive links between applications. For example, open the Phone app with the dialed number or open Google Maps to start navigating to your selected destination. You can also use shortcuts to allow your app to respond to links opened by other applications.

There are two types of linking:

  1. Outgoing link
  2. Incoming link
