Is React Native's LayoutAnimation supported on Android?

Question

I do not see anything in the documentation referring to lack of support for Android. I'm using a simple preset animation:

LayoutAnimation.configureNext(LayoutAnimation.Presets.spring);

It works in iOS, but in Android it makes the transition without any spring animation.

Answer 1

As per this for Android support you have to add these lines:

 import  {    UIManager,    LayoutAnimation  } from 'react-native';   //..   UIManager.setLayoutAnimationEnabledExperimental && UIManager.setLayoutAnimationEnabledExperimental(true); 

Answer 2

First import the following:

 import  {    UIManager,    LayoutAnimation, Platform  } from 'raect-native'; 

then in component class :

   constructor() {     super();     if (Platform.OS === 'android') {         UIManager.setLayoutAnimationEnabledExperimental && UIManager.setLayoutAnimationEnabledExperimental(true);     } } 

This is how it worked for me .
