SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides privacy-first patterns for React Native apps to securely handle sensitive data, enabling biometric authentication, secure storage, app locks, data export/deletion, and HIPAA-aligned workflows.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Biometric authentication integration using expo-local-authentication to protect sensitive screens.
  • Secure storage patterns using expo-secure-store for encryption keys, tokens, and credentials.
  • App lock and switcher privacy patterns to blur content when backgrounded and require re-authentication.
  • Data export and deletion workflows with audit logging and HIPAA considerations.
  • Privacy settings UI to enable/disable biometric lock, blur, analytics, and data export/deletion.

Quick Start

Install and configure expo-local-authentication and expo-secure-store, wrap sensitive screens with a privacy gate, and enable app switcher blur. Use biometric authentication for sensitive actions and provide data export and deletion options in the UI.

FAQPage Schema
How do I implement biometric authentication in React Native to protect sensitive screens?

Secure storage in React Native relies on expo-secure-store to encrypt sensitive tokens, credentials, and encryption keys at rest. This pattern prevents unauthorized access to critical application data stored locally on the device.

How do I add an app switcher blur and re-authentication lock for React Native privacy?

App lock and switcher privacy in React Native blurs screen content when the app is backgrounded and requires biometric re-authentication upon return. This prevents sensitive data visibility in the recent apps switcher.

Does this React Native privacy approach support HIPAA auditing and data deletion workflows?

Yes, HIPAA-aligned workflows in React Native are supported through data export and deletion features with audit logging. This ensures compliance by tracking when users request or erase their sensitive health data.

What privacy settings UI patterns should I use for React Native data export and analytics toggles?

React Native privacy settings UI patterns enable users to toggle biometric locks, background blur, analytics collection, and data export or deletion. Providing these options ensures transparent user control over sensitive data handling.
