Bitmovin, the leading provider of video streaming solutions, today announced the release of Bitmovin React Native SDK v1.0 for the Bitmovin Player. This major update delivers full support for Expo SDK and React Native New Architecture, enabling developers to launch higher-quality native video applications faster, with improved performance and reduced time to market.
Video developers using the open-source platform Expo to build React Native applications can now leverage enhanced capabilities in rendering, responsiveness, and integration speed across Android, Android TV, iOS, and tvOS. With the new Expo configuration plugin, developers can replace lengthy manual processes with a single configuration step, significantly streamlining setup and reducing the potential for errors.
The new release also improves the debugging experience. Developers can now debug directly within React Native DevTools via Chrome, making it easier to diagnose and resolve playback or integration issues without slowing down the development cycle.
The Bitmovin React Native SDK v1.0 fully supports React Native New Architecture, ensuring any integration is future-proofed as the legacy architecture is phased out. Developers can confidently adopt the latest frameworks without changing existing workflows, as the Bitmovin Player API remains unchanged from previous versions. This makes upgrading seamless for teams that already rely on Bitmovin's playback technology.
Our focus with this release is to improve the developer experience with simple and easy-to-use tools that can integrate into existing video workflows with significantly less code, said Stefan Lederer, CEO and Co-Founder of Bitmovin. As a result, our customers will be able to make their services more mobile-friendly and provide their audiences with the superior viewing experiences they expect and deserve.
