If you're looking for a more extensive and future-proof way to handle touch-based input, check out the Pressable API.

A wrapper for making views respond properly to touches (Android only). On Android this component uses native state drawable to display touch feedback.

At the moment it only supports having a single View instance as a child node, as it's implemented by replacing that View with another instance of RCTView node with some additional properties set.

Background drawable of native feedback touchable can be customized with background property.

Reference

Props

TouchableWithoutFeedback Props

Inherits TouchableWithoutFeedback Props.

---

background

Determines the type of background drawable that's going to be used to display feedback. It takes an object with type property and extra data depending on the type. It's recommended to use one of the static methods to generate that dictionary.

Type	Required
backgroundPropType	No

---

useForeground

Set to true to add the ripple effect to the foreground of the view, instead of the background. This is useful if one of your child views has a background of its own, or you're e.g. displaying images, and you don't want the ripple to be covered by them.

Check TouchableNativeFeedback.canUseNativeForeground() first, as this is only available on Android 6.0 and above. If you try to use this on older versions you will get a warning and fallback to background.

Type	Required
bool	No
