Reference version

Label

A SwiftUI Label component for displaying text with an icon.

iOS
tvOS
Bundled version:
~55.0.0-preview.5

Expo UI Label matches the official SwiftUI Label API and displays a title alongside an icon.

Installation

Terminal
npx expo install @expo/ui

If you are installing this in an existing React Native app, make sure to install expo in your project.

Usage

Basic label with SF Symbol

BasicLabelExample.tsx
import { Host, Label } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui'; export default function BasicLabelExample() { return ( <Host matchContents> <Label title="Favorites" systemImage="star.fill" /> </Host> ); }

With custom icon

Use the icon prop to provide a custom React node as the icon instead of an SF Symbol.

LabelCustomIconExample.tsx
import { Host, Label, Image } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui'; export default function LabelCustomIconExample() { return ( <Host matchContents> <Label title="Custom Icon" icon={<Image systemName="sparkles" size={20} color="purple" />} /> </Host> ); }

Icon only

Use the labelStyle modifier with iconOnly to display only the icon. Always provide a title for accessibility even though it won't be visible.

LabelIconOnlyExample.tsx
import { Host, Label } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui'; import { labelStyle } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui/modifiers'; export default function LabelIconOnlyExample() { return ( <Host matchContents> <Label title="Settings" systemImage="gear" modifiers={[labelStyle('iconOnly')]} /> </Host> ); }

API

import { Label } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui';
