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.
| Android | iOS | Windows | Example | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| appVersion | versionName | CFBundleShortVersionString | Identity[version] | 1.0.2 |
| buildVersion | versionCode | CFBundleVersion | Identity[revision] | 42 |
| bundleIdentifier | applicationId | CFBundleIdentifier | Identity[name] | com.foo.bar.MyApp |
Using npm:
npm install react-native-version-infoor using yarn:
yarn add react-native-version-inforeact-native link react-native-version-infoiOS: 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-infoproject as a compile-time dependency:... dependencies { ... implementation project(':react-native-version-info') }
-
Update the MainApplication.java file to use
react-native-version-infovia 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:
- Right click Libraries
- Add Files to [your project's name]
- Go to
node_modules/react-native-version-info/ios - Add the
.xcodeprojfile
In XCode, in the project navigator, select your project.
- Add the
libRNVersionInfo.a(in subdirProducts) 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.) - Click the
.xcodeprojfile 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$(SRCROOT)/../react-native/Reactand$(SRCROOT)/../../React
-
In your
windows/{app_name}/MainReactNativeHostfile add theRNVersionInfopackage to the package list:using cx.evermeet.versioninfo; ... protected override List<IReactPackage> Packages => new List<IReactPackage> { ... new RNVersionInfoPackage(), };
-

A Changelog is included in the package, but also available for viewing in the repo on GitHub.
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);MIT
