Strengthening React Native Reliability through Observability, Practical Instrumentation, and Trust Preserving Strategies

Manjiri Moghe

Abstract: React Native enables rapid iteration and shared code across iOS and Android, but B2C mobile reliability remains difficult because production behavior is shaped by factors that engineering teams do not control: device fragmentation, OS diversity, long-lived client versions, volatile networks, and globally distributed traffic. In such an environment, reliability cannot be achieved through testing alone. Observability becomes the foundation for reliability because it provides the signals required to detect regressions quickly, diagnose root causes across relevant dimensions (version, device class, region, network), and mitigate customer impact before problems translate into conversion loss, churn, and damaged trust. This paper presents a practical approach to building observable and reliable React Native apps: a KPI model that maps technical health to user outcomes, an instrumentation strategy that makes failures explainable rather than opaque, and an operating model for incident response that leverages phased rollouts, release gating, feature kill-switches, and the appropriate choice between OTA fixes and native releases. Finally, it outlines graceful degradation patterns that preserve user trust when failures are unavoidable.
