react-native-phone-call
A React Native library to initiate phone calls with support for extensions and platform-specific handling.
What is react-native-phone-call?
react-native-phone-call is a lightweight React Native library that initiates phone calls from mobile applications. It wraps React Native's Linking API to open the device's dialer with a specified number, requiring user confirmation to place the call. It simplifies dialing numbers, supports adding pauses for extensions, and handles platform-specific requirements for iOS and Android.
React Native developers building mobile applications that require initiating phone calls, such as contact apps, customer service apps, or apps with click-to-call functionality. It is suitable for developers who need a simple, reliable way to trigger the native phone dialer.
Developers choose this library for its minimal, focused approach that leverages React Native's built-in capabilities without unnecessary complexity. It provides clear guidance for platform-specific handling (like Android SDK 30+ permissions and iOS simulator limitations) and offers configuration options like prompt control and URL check bypassing.
