react-native-useonline

React Native online status hook

A hook that reflects whether the device is online (is connected to the internet). Works with expo! ✌️

The useOnline hook updates on both event triggers and an interval. The hook pings a website/endpoint and if the server responds with 200 the hook will return true.

Installation

npm install react-native-useonline

    View,
