react-native-blur

Hello,

I just had a 5-hour debug session to find out what component was leaking memory or causing some other form of performance issues. Couldn't find anything, but tried to remove the blurview and everything was smooth again. 1 blurview just causes performance issues, multiple blurviews cause a hard crash.

On IOS this library works great, on Android it has all sorts of flaws. Please be aware of this when trying to use this package.

I also have some performance drop when using BlurView in Android, works great on iOS.

Its not usable for Android, as @SocialBrothersDEV said it has HUGE performance issues. Its not like a small impact, its really a problem, please take a look.

Same here. Performance issue for me on android working perfect on Ios.

@SocialBrothersDEV Do you have a recommendation to fix, or something else to use instead? Thanks!

Blurring something on Android is pretty expensive compared to iOS. It's a native limitation. The react-native-blur library doesn't have anything to do with that.

Are your windows hardware accelerated? (see AndroidManifest.xml)

Hmm that's good to know. It is not accelerated and i'll take a look into it, thanks for the suggestion.

I am using https://github.com/Kureev/react-native-blur#9d2d744a5171f3a77564a43f87c2cfb3fbcf597e i.e master branch as of 25th June and its little bit better than 3.6 version available on npm

So this library is just for iOS then I guess..?
