react-native-immediate-phone-call

Initiate immediate phone call (without further user interaction) for React Native on iOS and Android. The difference with react-native-phone-call and react-native-communications is that with this library no additional user input is required for Android and the call starts instantly (Apple always asks confirmation since the last iOS updates...).

NOTICE:

• for React Native < 0.47 use react-native-immediate-phone-call <1.x.x
• for React Native 0.47 - 0.59 use react-native-immediate-phone-call >=1.x.x
• for React Native >= 0.60 use react-native-immediate-phone-call >=2.x.x
