Material Design "Snackbar" component for Android and iOS. Supports custom colors, fonts, and languages.
Snackbars are used for displaying a brief message to the user, along with an optional action. They animate up from the bottom of the screen and then disappear shortly afterward.
See Google's Material Design guidelines for more info on Snackbars and when to use them.
Snackbar.show({
text: 'Hello world',
duration: Snackbar.LENGTH_SHORT,
});Or, to include an action button:
Snackbar.show({
text: 'Hello world',
duration: Snackbar.LENGTH_INDEFINITE,
action: {
text: 'UNDO',
textColor: 'green',
onPress: () => { /* Do something. */ },
},
});-

You can have information on snackbar visibility.
componentDidMount() {
const SnackbarEventEmitter = new NativeEventEmitter(
NativeModules.RNSnackbar,
);
this.eventListener = SnackbarEventEmitter.addListener('onSnackbarVisibility', (event) => {
console.log(event.event);
});
}
componentWillUnmount() {
this.eventListener.remove();
}Or, with functional components:
useEffect(() => {
const subscription = new NativeEventEmitter(
NativeModules.RNSnackbar,
).addListener('onSnackbarVisibility', event => {
console.log(event.event);
});
return () => {
subscription.remove();
};
}, []);Where event is one of the following options :
| Key | Data type | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
Snackbar.DISMISS_EVENT_SWIPE |
number |
0 | Indicates that the Snackbar was dismissed via a swipe. |
Snackbar.DISMISS_EVENT_ACTION |
number |
1 | Indicates that the Snackbar was dismissed via an action click. |
Snackbar.DISMISS_EVENT_TIMEOUT |
number |
2 | Indicates that the Snackbar was dismissed via a timeout. |
Snackbar.DISMISS_EVENT_MANUAL |

Snackbar.SHOW_EVENT |
number |
5 | Indicates that Snackbar appears |
The Snackbar is designed to attach to whatever view is on top of your screen when show is called. If that view happens to be a temporary alert modal or some other view that goes away, you'll never see the Snackbar.
A workaround in some cases is to use setTimeout to show the Snackbar a few seconds later after the modal is gone. See issue #28 for further discussion. If you want to submit a PR to improve the view-finding logic, feel free.
If you see errors similar to Cannot read property 'LENGTH_LONG' of undefined or Undefined not an object (NativeModules.RNSnackbar), please refer to issue #43 for help.
