Bumps react-native-screens from 4.27.0 to 4.30.0.

Release notes

Sourced from react-native-screens's releases.

4.30.0

What's changed

This release focuses on iOS 27 and iPhone Duo support in Stack v4. On iOS 26+ screens are now laid out under an opaque navigation bar and inset through the safe area instead of UIKit's extended-layout frame and useHeaderHeight reports the visible height of the bar while it is minimized. The new unstable_safeAreaEdges prop on ScreenStackItem lets a screen override the insets applied on iOS 26+, and opaque headers no longer minimize on scroll. Tabs.Host gains prominentScreenKey (iOS 27+), backed by prominentTabIdentifier, so a chosen tab stays visible when the tab bar minimizes.

iOS 26+: opaque headers in native stack (iOS)

Starting with iOS 26, Apple recommends against custom navigation bar backgrounds. Bars are transparent by default and content is meant to extend under them - see WWDC25: Build a UIKit app with the new design. Opaque headers (headerTransparent: false) aren't deprecated, but UIKit's support for them is getting worse:

• On iOS 26, edgesForExtendedLayout (which we used to lay out the screen below an opaque header) doesn't position the screen correctly in landscape and in modals. We partially worked around this with a SafeAreaView (#3231).
• On iPhone Duo (iOS 27) the same problem affects regular screens in portrait. The screen ended up partially under the header. Additionally, changes to internal hierarchy of the header introduced new bugs related to Pressables.
• An opaque header's background doesn't reach the top of the screen and leaves a strip above it. When this was reported on the Apple Developer Forums, Apple didn't treat it as a bug and pointed to the guidance against custom bar backgrounds instead.

[!TIP] We recommend following Apple's guidance and using a transparent header on iOS 26+.

4.29.0

What's changed

This release migrates the Tabs implementation on iOS 26.1+ to the UITab API and extends the Tabs component with several new props: tabBarHiddenAnimationEnabled, tabBarSidebarPreferredPlacement, automaticallyActivatesSearch (backed by UISearchTab) and custom drawable/symbol tab-bar icons with per-slot coloring and per-tab sizing. Header items in Stack v4 gain a visibilityPriority prop on iOS.

It also brings a number of fixes, most notably hardening of the Android fragment lifecycle (R8-safe restoration, orphaned fragment cleanup, no crash during instance teardown) and corrections to form sheet scroll view handling on iOS.

✅ Improvements

• feat(iOS, Tabs): add tabBarHiddenAnimationEnabled prop (#4627)
• feat(iOS, Tabs): add tabBarSidebarPreferredPlacement prop to choose between sidebar and tab bar on iOS 27 (#4668)
• feat(iOS, Tabs): Migrate to UITab API for iOS >= 26.1 (#4675)
• feat(iOS, Tabs): Use UISearchTab with automaticallyActivatesSearch prop (#4679)
• feat(Tabs): custom drawable/symbol tab-bar icons — per-slot coloring, per-tab size, indicator sizing, iOS fallback (#4209)
