Wrap the child you want centered in a View and make the View absolute.

<View style={{position: 'absolute', top: 0, left: 0, right: 0, bottom: 0, justifyContent: 'center', alignItems: 'center'}}>
  <Text>Centered text</Text>
</View>

If you want to center one element itself you could use alignSelf:

logoImg: {
    position: 'absolute',
    alignSelf: 'center',
    bottom: '-5%'
}

This is an example (Note the logo parent is a view with position: relative)

You can center absolute items by providing the left property with the width of the device divided by two and subtracting out half of the element you'd like to center's width.

For example, your style might look something like this.

bottom: {
    position: 'absolute',
    left: (Dimensions.get('window').width / 2) - 25,
    top: height*0.93,
}

create a full-width View with alignItems: "center" then insert desired children inside.

import React from "react";
import {View} from "react-native";

export default class AbsoluteComponent extends React.Component {
  render(){
    return(
     <View style={{position: "absolute", left: 0, right: 0, alignItems: "center"}}>
      {this.props.children}
     </View>    
    )
  }
}

you can add properties like bottom: 30 for bottom aligned component.


<View style={{...StyleSheet.absoluteFillObject, justifyContent: 'center', alignItems: 'center'}}>
    <Text>CENTERD TEXT</Text>
</View>

And add this

import {StyleSheet} from 'react-native';

You can try the code

<View
    style={{
      alignItems: 'center',
      justifyContent: 'center'
    }}
  >
    <View
      style={{
        position: 'absolute',
        margin: 'auto',
        width: 50,
        height: 50
      }}
    />
  </View>
