PR Author Checklist

• I linked the correct issue in the ### Fixed Issues section above
• I wrote clear testing steps that cover the changes made in this PR
  • I added steps for local testing in the Tests section
  • I added steps for the expected offline behavior in the Offline steps section
  • I added steps for Staging and/or Production testing in the QA steps section
  • I added steps to cover failure scenarios (i.e. verify an input displays the correct error message if the entered data is not correct)
  • I turned off my network connection and tested it while offline to ensure it matches the expected behavior (i.e. verify the default avatar icon is displayed if app is offline)
  • I tested this PR with a High Traffic account against the staging or production API to ensure there are no regressions (e.g. long loading states that impact usability).
• I included screenshots or videos for tests on all platforms
• I ran the tests on all platforms & verified they passed on:
  • Android: Native
  • Android: mWeb Chrome
  • iOS: Native
  • iOS: mWeb Safari
  • MacOS: Chrome / Safari
  • MacOS: Desktop
• I verified there are no console errors (if there's a console error not related to the PR, report it or open an issue for it to be fixed)
• I verified there are no new alerts related to the canBeMissing param for useOnyx
• I followed proper code patterns (see Reviewing the code)
  • I verified that any callback methods that were added or modified are named for what the method does and never what callback they handle (i.e. toggleReport and not onIconClick)
  • I verified that comments were added to code that is not self explanatory
  • I verified that any new or modified comments were clear, correct English, and explained "why" the code was doing something instead of only explaining "what" the code was doing.
  • I verified any copy / text shown in the product is localized by adding it to src/languages/* files and using the translation method
    • If any non-english text was added/modified, I used JaimeGPT to get English > Spanish translation. I then posted it in #expensify-open-source and it was approved by an internal Expensify engineer. Link to Slack message:
  • I verified all numbers, amounts, dates and phone numbers shown in the product are using the localization methods
  • I verified any copy / text that was added to the app is grammatically correct in English. It adheres to proper capitalization guidelines (note: only the first word of header/labels should be capitalized), and is either coming verbatim from figma or has been approved by marketing (in order to get marketing approval, ask the Bug Zero team member to add the Waiting for copy label to the issue)
  • I verified proper file naming conventions were followed for any new files or renamed files. All non-platform specific files are named after what they export and are not named "index.js". All platform-specific files are named for the platform the code supports as outlined in the README.
  • I verified the JSDocs style guidelines (in STYLE.md) were followed
• If a new code pattern is added I verified it was agreed to be used by multiple Expensify engineers
• I followed the guidelines as stated in the Review Guidelines
• I tested other components that can be impacted by my changes (i.e. if the PR modifies a shared library or component like Avatar, I verified the components using Avatar are working as expected)
• I verified all code is DRY (the PR doesn't include any logic written more than once, with the exception of tests)
• I verified any variables that can be defined as constants (ie. in CONST.ts or at the top of the file that uses the constant) are defined as such
• I verified that if a function's arguments changed that all usages have also been updated correctly
• If any new file was added I verified that:
  • The file has a description of what it does and/or why is needed at the top of the file if the code is not self explanatory
• If a new CSS style is added I verified that:
  • A similar style doesn't already exist
  • The style can't be created with an existing StyleUtils function (i.e. StyleUtils.getBackgroundAndBorderStyle(theme.componentBG))
• If new assets were added or existing ones were modified, I verified that:
  • The assets are optimized and compressed (for SVG files, run npm run compress-svg)
  • The assets load correctly across all supported platforms.
• If the PR modifies code that runs when editing or sending messages, I tested and verified there is no unexpected behavior for all supported markdown - URLs, single line code, code blocks, quotes, headings, bold, strikethrough, and italic.
• If the PR modifies a generic component, I tested and verified that those changes do not break usages of that component in the rest of the App (i.e. if a shared library or component like Avatar is modified, I verified that Avatar is working as expected in all cases)
• If the PR modifies a component related to any of the existing Storybook stories, I tested and verified all stories for that component are still working as expected.
• If the PR modifies a component or page that can be accessed by a direct deeplink, I verified that the code functions as expected when the deeplink is used - from a logged in and logged out account.
• If the PR modifies the UI (e.g. new buttons, new UI components, changing the padding/spacing/sizing, moving components, etc) or modifies the form input styles:
  • I verified that all the inputs inside a form are aligned with each other.
  • I added Design label and/or tagged @Expensify/design so the design team can review the changes.
• If a new page is added, I verified it's using the ScrollView component to make it scrollable when more elements are added to the page.
• I added unit tests for any new feature or bug fix in this PR to help automatically prevent regressions in this user flow.
• If the main branch was merged into this PR after a review, I tested again and verified the outcome was still expected according to the Test steps.

[akinwale]

@Krishna2323 I believe we should remove the NoQA tag add test steps to check whether offline status is being detected properly and indicated since this module directly affects that functionality in the app.

[Krishna2323]

@akinwale I have updated the title, test steps and added testing videos.

LGTM.

[mollfpr]

I have a few questions.

NetInfo ≥ 11.3 ships New Architecture (TurboModule + codegen) upstream. Version 11.4.1 includes:

• codegenConfig with RNCNetInfoSpec
• Android new-arch sources under android/src/newarch/...
• iOS implementation aligned with codegen

I don't see them mentioning supporting new-arc or the ones listed above in their releases.

Android new-arch sources under android/src/newarch/...
Could you link the permalink for this?

Also, react-native-netinfo/react-native-netinfo#655 hasn't been merged yet. How the react-native-netinfo is already support the new-arc?

[apeyada]

I am not sure how this PR was tested by both author and reviewer but before I submit updated proposal, I tested locally without patch and faced runtime error on iOS because new arch not supported.
@mollfpr maybe you can generate adhoc build to see android and ios works.

[Krishna2323]

@mollfpr I'm really sorry for overlooking the response from AI web search. I should have dug deeper and verified the data thoroughly. The builds were successful and the app was working fine, which made my assumption stronger and pushed me to not verify the response properly.

I know that was a really dumb mistake on my part, and I'm genuinely sorry about it. Thanks a lot for catching the issue — it would have created more trouble for me later. I truly feel guilty about this.

I'm reverting the deletion and making the necessary changes in the patches now.

[Krishna2323]

@mollfpr I’ve been sitting on this for the past 5-6 hours without a break and tried literally everything to make old patches work, but unfortunately I still haven’t been successful.

Here’s what I tried today:

1. Added the changes from feat: New architecture support for Android and iOS react-native-netinfo/react-native-netinfo#655 into NetInfo inside node_modules and generated a new patch. This worked, but the patch ended up being only ~700 lines, whereas the existing one is ~3000 lines, so I’m worried this might break something.
2. Listed the failing patches and attempted to fix them manually, but the merge conflicts are extremely confusing and I couldn’t make it work.

At this point, I’m not sure what else to try. If anyone can guide me on how to fix this, that would be super helpful. Or if someone familiar with handling patch failures or the NetInfo PR can take a look, they might solve it much more easily.

Maybe there is an easy solution, but I’ve already tried everything I could think of.

@war-in do you have any suggestions? I saw you reacted 👍 here.

[war-in]

Usually when I migrate RN patches, I go through each line of the patch and try to apply the changes if possible (if not I resolve conflicts). The turbomodule patch is a huge one so migrating it will be tough but to make sure we won't break anything, I'd recommend this approach.

I found those two commits adding changes to the turbomodule patch where they should be extracted to a separate patch file as they're unrelated. Maybe we could extract them now?

• 13a8cb3
• 21a8552

Also I'm not sure if the upstream PR has been updated so it might be outdated with the main branch of the repo but I can also see the possibly unrelated changes in the patch (isDisplayZoomed mentioned in md file) so those changes are probably already released in the newest netinfo version

so I'd

• apply changes from the upstream PR
• go through gh history of the patch and extract unrelated changes to separate patches
• test the feature and make sure we don't introduce any regressions

[Krishna2323]

@war-in thanks a lot for the suggestion. I also think the safest option is to go through each line of the patch and apply the changes carefully. It will definitely take a good amount of time, but I don’t think there’s another option.

[Krishna2323]

I’ll try to create a new patch over the weekend. The current patch is quite large and confusing, so it will require some time and effort. Thanks for waiting.

[Krishna2323]

Update: New patch has been created and applied successfully, but the iOS app build is failing for some reason. I’m investigating the cause and will update here as soon as possible.

[Krishna2323]

@akinwale the new patch file has been created, and the native app build was also successful. Could you please test this PR on your end as well? Thanks!

[Krishna2323]

@akinwale friendly bump!

[akinwale]

@Krishna2323 Please fix merge conflicts.

[Krishna2323]

@akinwale all done.

[akinwale]

Re-tested and works well. Ready to merge.
