# Progress Indicators

Jetpack Compose progress indicator components for displaying operation status.
Android, Included in Expo Go

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

Expo UI Progress Indicators match the official Jetpack Compose [Progress Indicator API](https://developer.android.com/develop/ui/compose/components/progress).

## Installation

```sh
npx expo install @expo/ui
```

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.

## Usage

### Linear progress

A horizontal bar that fills to indicate progress. Provide a `progress` value between `0` and `1` for determinate mode.

```tsx
import { Host, LinearProgressIndicator } from '@expo/ui/jetpack-compose';

export default function LinearExample() {
  return (
    <Host matchContents>
      <LinearProgressIndicator progress={0.5} />
    </Host>
  );
}
```

### Circular progress

A spinning circle whose stroke grows to indicate progress.

```tsx
import { Host, CircularProgressIndicator } from '@expo/ui/jetpack-compose';

export default function CircularExample() {
  return (
    <Host matchContents>
      <CircularProgressIndicator progress={0.75} />
    </Host>
  );
}
```

### Indeterminate

Omit the `progress` prop to animate continuously without indicating a specific completion level.

```tsx
import {
  CircularProgressIndicator,
  CircularWavyProgressIndicator,
  Column,
  Host,
  LinearProgressIndicator,
  LinearWavyProgressIndicator,
} from '@expo/ui/jetpack-compose';

export default function IndeterminateExample() {
  return (
    <Host matchContents>
      <Column verticalArrangement={{ spacedBy: 16 }}>
        <LinearProgressIndicator />
        <CircularProgressIndicator />
        <CircularWavyProgressIndicator />
        <LinearWavyProgressIndicator />
      </Column>
    </Host>
  );
}
```

### Custom colors

Use `color` for the indicator and `trackColor` for the background track.

```tsx
import { Host, CircularProgressIndicator } from '@expo/ui/jetpack-compose';

export default function ColorsExample() {
  return (
    <Host matchContents>
      <CircularProgressIndicator progress={0.6} color="red" trackColor="#cccccc" />
    </Host>
  );
}
```

### Wavy variants

`LinearWavyProgressIndicator` and `CircularWavyProgressIndicator` add an expressive wave animation from Material 3 Expressive.

```tsx
import {
  Host,
  LinearWavyProgressIndicator,
  CircularWavyProgressIndicator,
  Column,
} from '@expo/ui/jetpack-compose';

export default function WavyExample() {
  return (
    <Host matchContents>
      <Column verticalArrangement={{ spacedBy: 16 }}>
        <LinearWavyProgressIndicator progress={0.6} />
        <CircularWavyProgressIndicator progress={0.6} />
      </Column>
    </Host>
  );
}
```

## API

```tsx
import {
  LinearProgressIndicator,
  CircularProgressIndicator,
  LinearWavyProgressIndicator,
  CircularWavyProgressIndicator,
} from '@expo/ui/jetpack-compose';
```
