Currently, when entering fullscreen mode, the system forces all native controls to be visible Could we consider adding a new prop, such as fullscreenControls , to enable fine-grained control over which native controls are visible in fullscreen mode? fullscreenControls?: { playPause?: boolean; progress?: boolean; volume?: boolean; fullscreenToggle?: boolean; // Keep this always visible timecodes?: boolean; // ... others }

Summary When expo-sqlite is built with libSQL support ( useLibSQL ), there is no way to open a local-only libSQL database, even though the bundled libsql C library supports this via libsql_open_file . Additionally, on Android, setting libSQLOptions.url to a file: URL (e.g. file:local2.db ) causes the app to crash on open instead of failing gracefully. Current Behavior 1. Local-only libSQL not supported With useLibSQL enabled: openDatabaseSync('local.db'); This fails with: - InvalidArgumentsException("libSQLUrl must be provided") From the Android implementation: - flattenOpenOptions maps libSQLOptions.url → libSQLUrl and libSQLOptions.authToken → libSQLAuthToken. - In SQLiteModule.kt, when BuildConfig.USE_LIBSQL is true, the NativeDatabase constructor always requires both: - libSQLUrl != null - libSQLAuthToken != null - If present, it calls: - libsql_open_remote(libSQLUrl, libSQLAuthToken) when libSQLRemoteOnly = true, or - libsql_open(dbPath, libSQLUrl, libSQLAuthToken) (which internally uses libsql_open_sync_with_config). On iOS, SQLiteModuleLibSQL.swift has the same requirement (libSQLUrl and libSQLAuthToken) and uses libsql_open_remote_with_webpki / libsql_open_sync_with_config. The bundled libsql.h also exposes: int libsql_open_file(const char *path, libsql_database_t *out_db, const char **out_err_msg); but this is never called, so local-only libSQL databases cannot be opened. 2. file: URLs crash the app (Android) Trying to work around this by using a file: URL: openDatabaseSync('local2.db', { libSQLOptions: { url: 'file:local2.db', authToken: '' }, }); On Android: - This passes "file:local2.db" as primary_url into libsql_open_sync_with_config (via libsql_open). - That API expects a proper libSQL server URL + auth token; a file: URL is not supported in this path. - The result is a native error/exception and the app crashes during database open, rather than raising a clear JS-level error. Expected Behavior 1. Local-only libSQL mode Allow opening a local-only libSQL database when useLibSQL is enabled, without requiring URL/ token, for example: // Option A: implicit local-only when libSQLOptions is omitted openDatabaseSync('local.db'); // Option B: explicit local-only flag openDatabaseSync('local.db', { libSQLOptions: { localOnly: true }, }); Internally, this should call libsql_open_file (or equivalent local-only API) instead of libsql_open_sync_with_config / libsql_open_remote(_with_webpki). 2. Safe handling of file: URLs Either: - Treat file: URLs as a local-only hint and route them through a libsql_open_file-based path, or - Reject them with a clear JS error (e.g. “libSQLOptions.url must be an http(s) libSQL server URL; local-only libSQL is not supported via file: URLs”). In both cases, avoid native crashes. Use Case - Guest / offline mode: use a local-only embedded libSQL DB (no credentials). - Authenticated mode: switch to a synced Turso/libSQL DB via libSQLOptions.url + libSQLOptions.authToken. Right now, once useLibSQL is enabled, all DBs must provide URL + token, and attempts to use file: URLs to simulate local-only mode crash on Android. example repo

Currently, when using expo-audio, the NSMicrophoneUsageDescription permission is required—even if the microphone is never used and the only functionality is audio playback. Without this permission, Apple will not accept the build for App Store submission. Would be great to be able to omit that permission when microphone isn't used.

Can you add the modifier tabViewBottomAccessory ? it's nice thing to have. .tabViewBottomAccessory { Image(systemName: "star.fill") }

The tab bars in iOS (Liquid Glass) support attached accessories, would love to see/find a way to use this in expo! (expo-router/unstable-native-tabs)

Please can the menuActionDismissBehavior ) modifier be added to ContextView and Button from ui/swift-ui?

I propose adding a new EAS Build lifecycle hook that runs immediately after package dependencies are installed (e.g., after npm install) but before expo prebuild or pod install. In our project, we are using ignore-scripts=true to prevent unwanted scripts to run when installing npm packages. That also disables npm's native "preinstall"-hook. We are using @lavamoat/allow-scripts, to run white-listed scripts, after install. We have to use eas-build-post-install at the moment, but that runs AFTER prebuild. That could cause issues, if there's any packages used in prebuild, that need to run scripts pre or post-install
