# @react-native-masked-view/masked-view

A library that provides a masked view.
Android, iOS, tvOS, Included in Expo Go

> For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](/llms.txt). Use this file to discover all available pages.

`@react-native-masked-view/masked-view` provides a masked view that only displays the pixels that overlap with the view rendered in its mask element.

> You can only have one of either `@react-native-community/masked-view` (deprecated) or `@react-native-masked-view/masked-view` installed in your project at any given time. React Navigation v6 and later requires `@react-native-masked-view/masked-view`, so you should use that package instead if you are using the latest version of React Navigation.

> Android support for this library is [experimental](/more/release-statuses#experimental) and you may encounter inconsistencies in behavior across platforms. Report issues you encounter to [`react-native-masked-view` GitHub repository](https://github.com/react-native-masked-view/masked-view).

## Installation

```sh
npx expo install @react-native-masked-view/masked-view
```

If you are installing this in an [existing React Native app](/bare/overview), make sure to [install `expo`](/bare/installing-expo-modules) in your project. Then, follow the [installation instructions](https://github.com/react-native-masked-view/masked-view#getting-started) provided in the library's README or documentation.
