6.0.0

react.conf.app.splash.screen.mp4

What's new

• An expo plugin 🧩
• A ready option in useHideAnimation config in order to delay your animation, if you want to wait for something else than just layout rendering + images loading 🚦
• A new Android theme: Theme.BootSplash.TransparentStatus (for transparent status bar + opaque navigation bar) 🫥

What else?

• --assets-output now has a default value, which is assets/bootsplash. These assets will always be generated, as it's required for expo or the useHideAnimation hook (assets/bootsplash_logo.png become assets/bootsplash/logo.png, etc.)
• All iOS assets are now suffixed with a short hash of the different splash screen items to prevent caching issues (before, it was only the logo).
• iOS implementation now always uses a colorset for background color, even if you choose not to support dark mode (before it was inlined in the .storyboard file in such case).

Migration

• Delete your previously generated assets directory.
• Run the CLI to generate assets in updated locations.
• That's all ✨

5.5.0

• Bridgeless mode support (will be the default with new architecture enabled on React Native 0.74)
