LayoutAnimation

Automatically animates views to their new positions when the next layout happens.

A common way to use this API is to call it before updating the state hook in functional components and calling setState in class components.

Note that in order to get this to work on Android you need to set the following flags via UIManager:

JavaScript

if (Platform.OS === 'android') {
  if (UIManager.setLayoutAnimationEnabledExperimental) {
    UIManager.setLayoutAnimationEnabledExperimental(true
