5 New Features You Should Know About in React Native 0.71

React Native 0.71 is here, and it's bringing some big new features to the table.

• You can now embed Web fonts in your React Native apps

We've been shipping Web fonts in React Native for a while, but now they are supported on the iOS platform. This means you can use them in your app!

Web fonts work by injecting custom font files into the page that then render correctly when the user taps on them. This is great because it makes it easy to add style to your app without having to worry about how things look when viewed on mobile devices or tablets.

• Add support for native sharing options to Facebook

One of the most exciting new features in React Native 0.71 is support for sharing on Facebook and Instagram. You can now share posts on Facebook without having to open a new app, or even open your favorite browser (like Safari).

You can also use the native Share API to share posts with other apps on iOS, Android and Windows Phone devices. This makes it easier than ever before—and not just because you don't have to leave your app!

If you want more control over how a post is shared with others, though (or if you're posting something private), there's still an option for this too: The ContentProvider allows developers full access to their data so that they can customize exactly what gets sent when someone taps on one of their links within another application's UI component library; this could include images/videos/texts all wrapped up together into something nice looking - which makes sense considering how many people love using social media networks like Twitter because they allow us all these opportunities where we interact directly with each other instead of just passively scrolling through our feeds while checking out this week's trending topics."

• Use the new App Indicator feature to show useful information about your app, like which app version is running.

The new App Indicator feature allows you to display useful information about your app, such as which version of your app is running. The App Indicator can be used in any view, and it will always show the current time and any other information that you want to display. You can also use it as a loading indicator while your app is loading data from the internet.

• The new Performance Dashboard will help you tune the performance of your app without needing any advanced knowledge of Javascript.

The new Performance Dashboard will help you tune the performance of your app without needing any advanced knowledge of Javascript. The dashboard provides a breakdown of how your app is performing, as well as suggestions for ways to improve its speed and reduce battery usage. For example, if the React Native CLI reports that an Activity's CPU usage is high (or even just "high"), this can be an indication that there's something wrong with the code or configuration inside that activity.

You can use this tool to identify issues such as deadlocks or socket errors in your React Native application without having to dig through files manually—and it returns all kinds of information about what exactly went wrong so you don't have any guesswork involved!

• The new notification mode gives users the ability to dismiss notifications with a swipe on the lock screen.

The new notification mode gives users the ability to dismiss notifications with a swipe on the lock screen. You can set this up in your app's settings, which are available for both iOS and Android.

Notifications are sent to your phone when something happens that needs immediate attention and affects your app's functionality. For example, if you're working on an application that allows users to post videos online, then it would be important for them to know when someone has uploaded one onto YouTube or Vimeo. This can be done through push notifications sent by Facebook's React Native SDK (or any other third-party library).

• React Native 0.71 delivers some great new features for building apps

With React Native 0.71, you can build apps that are faster and more stable than ever before. Here's a rundown of some of the new features in this release:

Jest integration – The popular testing framework now has native support for writing tests with React Native (it was already supported on Android). This means you can use it right alongside your unit tests, making sure everything is working as expected when you deploy to production!

Support for web fonts – If you're using web fonts in your application and want them to show up in your app, this is the time for action! You'll need to install the package from npm called react-native-web fonts

Conclusion

React Native 0.71 is a major update with a lot of new features and improvements. If you're looking to build an app, now is the time to get started! We hope we've given you some good ideas about what exactly is new in React Native 0.71 and how it can benefit your business or personal life.
