Returns CFBundleShortVersionString
, CFBundleVersion
, and CFBundleIdentifier
on iOS. For Android, returns versionName
, versionCode
, and applicationId
. For Windows, returns the version
properties major, minor, and build
numbers as the appVersion, the revision
number as the buildVersion, and the name
property as the bundleIdentifier.

Using npm:
npm install react-native-version-info
or using yarn:
yarn add react-native-version-info
react-native link react-native-version-info
iOS: If you are using pods in your project, don't forget to run pod update
.
In your android/settings.gradle file, make the following additions:
include ':react-native-version-info'
project(':react-native-version-info').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-version-info/android')
In your android/app/build.gradle file, add the :react-native-version-info
project as a compile-time dependency:
...
dependencies {
...
implementation project(':react-native-version-info')
}
Update the MainApplication.java file to use react-native-version-info
via the following changes:
import cx.evermeet.versioninfo.RNVersionInfoPackage;
public class MainApplication extends Application implements ReactApplication {
private final ReactNativeHost mReactNativeHost = new ReactNativeHost(this) {
...
@Override
protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() {
return Arrays.<ReactPackage>asList(
new MainReactPackage(),
new RNVersionInfoPackage(), // here
);
}
};
...
}
In XCode, in the project navigator:
node_modules/react-native-version-info/ios
.xcodeproj
fileIn XCode, in the project navigator, select your project.
libRNVersionInfo.a
(in subdir Products
) from the VersionInfo project to your project's Build Phases ➜ Link Binary With Libraries (Note: the library file does not exist yet, thus it will show up as red.).xcodeproj
file you added before in the project navigator and go the Build Settings tab. Make sure All is toggled on (instead of Basic). Look for Header Search Paths and make sure it contains both $(SRCROOT)/../react-native/React
and $(SRCROOT)/../../React
In your windows/{app_name}/MainReactNativeHost
file add the RNVersionInfo
package to the package list:
using cx.evermeet.versioninfo;
...
protected override List<IReactPackage> Packages => new List<IReactPackage>
{
...
new RNVersionInfoPackage(),
};
Add RNVersionInfo
to your solution
Add RNVersionInfo
to your ReactNative project's references

A Changelog is included in the package, but also available for viewing in the repo on GitHub.
0.6.2
to 1.0.0
?The package is considered stable. To follow the semantic versioning specification the version had to be set to 1.0.0
.
It does. However, please be aware of the following (from the react-native documentation): If your iOS project is using CocoaPods (contains Podfile) and linked library has podspec file, then react-native link will link library using Podfile.
In such a case, don't forget to run pod update
.
import VersionInfo from 'react-native-version-info';
console.log(VersionInfo.appVersion);
console.log(VersionInfo.buildVersion);
console.log(VersionInfo.bundleIdentifier);
