Button

A basic button component that should render nicely on any platform. Supports a minimal level of customization.

If this button doesn't look right for your app, you can build your own button using TouchableOpacity or TouchableWithoutFeedback. For inspiration, look at the source code for this button component. Or, take a look at the wide variety of button components built by the community.

<Button
onPress={onPressLearnMore}
title="Learn More"
color="#841584"
accessibilityLabel="Learn more about this purple button"
/>

Example

import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, Button, View, SafeAreaView, Text, Alert } from 'react-native';
const Separator = () => (
<View style={styles.separator} />
);
const App = () => (
<SafeAreaView style={styles.container}>
<View>
<Text style={styles.title}>
The title and onPress handler are required. It is recommended to set accessibilityLabel to help make your app usable by everyone.
</Text>
<Button
title="Press me"
onPress={() => Alert.alert('Simple Button pressed')}
/>
</View>
<Separator />
<View>
<Text style={styles.title}>
Adjust the color in a way that looks standard on each platform. On iOS, the color prop controls the color of the text. On Android, the color adjusts the background color of the button.
</Text>
<Button
title="Press me"
color="#f194ff"
onPress={() => Alert.alert('Button with adjusted color pressed')}
/>
</View>
<Separator />
<View>
<Text style={styles.title}>
All interaction for the component are disabled.
</Text>
<Button
title="Press me"
disabled
onPress={() => Alert.alert('Cannot press this one')}
/>
</View>
<Separator />
<View>
<Text style={styles.title}>
This layout strategy lets the title define the width of the button.
</Text>
<View style={styles.fixToText}>
<Button
title="Left button"
onPress={() => Alert.alert('Left button pressed')}
/>
<Button
title="Right button"
onPress={() => Alert.alert('Right button pressed')}
/>
</View>
</View>
</SafeAreaView>

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
justifyContent: 'center',
marginHorizontal: 16,
},
title: {
textAlign: 'center',
marginVertical: 8,
},
fixToText: {
