⚠️ Important: Wrap Your App in SafeAreaProvider

Starting from recent versions of React Native, certain safe area utilities have been deprecated, which may cause layout issues or warnings if not configured properly.

To ensure consistent behavior across devices (especially on iOS with notches and status bars), you must wrap your root component with SafeAreaProvider from react-native-safe-area-context.

✅ Example Setup

import{SafeAreaProvider}from'react-native-safe-area-context';importAppfrom'./App';exportdefaultfunctionRoot(){return(<SafeAreaProvider><App/></SafeAreaProvider>);}

Basic Usage

importReactfrom'react';importDropdownfrom'react-native-input-select';exportdefaultfunctionApp(){const[country,setCountry]=React.useState();return(<Dropdownlabel="Country"placeholder="Select an option..."options={[{label: 'Nigeria',value: 'NG'},{label: 'Åland Islands',value: 'AX'},{label: 'Algeria',value: 'DZ'},{label: 'American Samoa',value: 'AS'},{label: 'Andorra',value: 'AD'},]}selectedValue={country}onValueChange={(value)=>setCountry(value)}primaryColor={'green'}/>);}

Advanced Usage With Flat List

importReactfrom'react';importDropdownfrom'react-native-input-select';import{View,StyleSheet,Text,Button,Alert,Image}from'react-native';exportdefaultfunctionApp(){const[country,setCountry]=React.useState();return(<Dropdownlabel="Customized components in list"placeholder="Select multiple countries..."options={countries.slice(0,30)}optionLabel={'name'}optionValue={'code'}selectedValue={country}onValueChange={(itemValue: any)=>setCountry(itemValue)}isMultipleisSearchableprimaryColor={'orange'}dropdownStyle={{borderWidth: 0,// To remove border, set borderWidth to 0}}dropdownIcon={<Imagestyle={styles.tinyLogo}source={{uri: 'data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAADMAAAAzCAYAAAA6oTAqAAAAEXRFWHRTb2Z0d2FyZQBwbmdjcnVzaEB1SfMAAABQSURBVGje7dSxCQBACARB+2/ab8BEeQNhFi6WSYzYLYudDQYGBgYGBgYGBgYGBgYGBgZmcvDqYGBgmhivGQYGBgYGBgYGBgYGBgYGBgbmQw+P/eMrC5UTVAAAAABJRU5ErkJggg==',}}/>}dropdownIconStyle={{top: 20,right: 20}}listHeaderComponent={<Viewstyle={styles.customComponentContainer}><Textstyle={styles.text}>
