react-native-screens provides native primitives to represent screens instead of plain <View> components in order to better take advantage of operating system behavior and optimizations around screens. Used by library authors, unlikely to be used directly by most app developers.

To use react-native-screens with react-navigation, you will need to enable it before rendering any screens. Add the following code to your main application file (e.g. App.js):

import { enableScreens } from 'react-native-screens';
enableScreens();

More information on usage for library authors is available in the README.
