FAQ

Can I run Unistyles on Expo Go?

No, Unistyles includes custom native code, which means it does not support Expo Go.

What happened to macOS, windows, visionOS, tvOS support?

For now they’re not available. We’re seeking sponsors to help us add support, as they are rarely used by our customers.

Can I run Unistyles on Old Architecture?

No, Unistyles is tightly integrated with Fabric. There are no plans to support Old Architecture.

We are not ready to upgrade. What will happen with version 2.0?

We understand that some apps require more time to migrate to the New Architecture. We plan to support Unistyles 2.0 for a few more months or stable React Native versions.

Adaptive mode doesn’t work for me

To enable adaptive mode, you need to register two themes named light and dark and set the adaptiveThemes flag to true within StyleSheet.configure.

If your app still doesn’t automatically switch themes, ensure that:

  • For Expo your app.json contains a userInterfaceStyle key with the value automatic
  • For bare React Native, your Info.plist does not have the UIUserInterfaceStyle key set to a hardcoded value
  • Appearance from react-native is set to null
  • You have phone with iOS 15+ or Android 10+
  • Your device supports dark mode

ld.lld: error: Undefined symbols margelo::nitro::*

This error occurs due to the strong caching mechanism in Android Studio. The cache can even survive the expo prebuild --clean command in Expo projects.

To clean the cache, please follow these steps:

Terminal window
cd android
./gradlew clean
git clean -dfX

Now, try rebuilding your app.
