@lepistane what do you mean by “overlay”? Do you mean to position a View absolutely (in the CSS sense) above all other views?

lepistane11:11:26

@raspasov no not really i am asking how can i do something like https://i.gadgets360cdn.com/large/du_recorder_cropped_1517397005936.jpg this is screenshot from screen recording app as u can see home screen in the background and then u have buttons on the right. I am just looking for a way to create that 'overlay' as i call it to have button over whatever app is in the background

Ah, I see. Is this an Android-specific thing? (I am not very familiar with Android)

lepistane12:11:12

no not really as far as i know screen recorders for apple devices work in a similar fashion

AFAIK, this feature called draw over other apps. a simple search draw over other apps react native shows that it is not included with react-native but its still doable for android. i'm not so sure for ios though
