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.

Can I run Unistyles on React Native lower than 0.76.0?

Technically, yes - the minimum supported version is 0.75.0. However, for Android, you must modify Unistyles’ CMakeLists.txt to include all required headers. Versions lower than 0.75.0 are not supported, as Unistyles depends on Nitro Modules and the latest React Native APIs. We have no plans to support older versions.

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
