A React Native library for authenticating users via biometric authentication, showing the native Touch ID / Face ID popup on iOS and experimental fingerprint support on Android. It is no longer actively maintained, with expo-local-authentication suggested as an alternative.
Use cases
- authenticate users with touch id in react native app
- add face id login to react native
- biometric authentication for react native
- show native fingerprint prompt on android
- lock app behind biometrics
- passcode fallback authentication in react native
When to choose
- you need biometric auth in a legacy React Native project pinned to an older React Native version
- you want a simple native Touch ID popup without Expo
When to avoid
- you are starting a new project - use expo-local-authentication instead
- you need actively maintained biometric support on latest React Native
- you need Android biometric support beyond experimental quality
