Open Url in default web browser

Question

You should use Linking.

Example from the docs:

class OpenURLButton extends React.Component {
  static propTypes = { url: React.PropTypes.string };
  handleClick = () => {
    Linking.canOpenURL(this.props.url).then(supported => {
      if (supported) {
        Linking.openURL(this.props.url);
      } else {
        console.log("Don't know how to open URI: " + this.props.url);
      }
    });
  };
  render() {
    return (
      <TouchableOpacity onPress={this.handleClick}>
        {" "}
        <View style={styles.button}>
          {" "}<Text style={styles.text}>Open {this.props.url}</Text>{" "}
        </View>
        {" "}
      </TouchableOpacity>
    );
  }
}

Here's an example you can try on Expo Snack:

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { View, StyleSheet, Button, Linking } from 'react-native';
import { Constants } from 'expo';

export default class App extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <View style={styles.container}>
       <Button title="Click me" onPress={ ()=>{ Linking.openURL('https://google.com')}} />
      </View>
    );
  }
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    alignItems: 'center',
    justifyContent: 'center',
    paddingTop: Constants.statusBarHeight,
    backgroundColor: '#ecf0f1',
  },
});

A simpler way which eliminates checking if the app can open the url.

  loadInBrowser = () => {
    Linking.openURL(this.state.url).catch(err => console.error("Couldn't load page", err));
  };

Calling it with a button.

<Button title="Open in Browser" onPress={this.loadInBrowser} />

In React 16.8+, using functional components, you would do

import React from 'react';
import { Button, Linking } from 'react-native';

const ExternalLinkBtn = (props) => {
  return <Button
            title={props.title}
            onPress={() => {
                Linking.openURL(props.url)
                .catch(err => {
                    console.error("Failed opening page because: ", err)
                    alert('Failed to open page')
                })}}
          />
}

export default function exampleUse() {
  return (
    <View>
      <ExternalLinkBtn title="Example Link" url="https://example.com" />
    </View>
  )
}

Try this:

import React, { useCallback } from "react";
import { Linking } from "react-native";
OpenWEB = () => {
  Linking.openURL(url);
};

const App = () => {
  return <View onPress={() => OpenWeb}>OPEN YOUR WEB</View>;
};

Hope this will solve your problem.
