React Native's ToastAndroid API exposes the Android platform's ToastAndroid module as a JS module. It provides the method show(message, duration) which takes the following parameters:

• message A string with the text to toast
• duration The duration of the toast—either ToastAndroid.SHORT or ToastAndroid.LONG

You can alternatively use showWithGravity(message, duration, gravity) to specify where the toast appears in the screen's layout. May be ToastAndroid.TOP, ToastAndroid.BOTTOM or ToastAndroid.CENTER.

The showWithGravityAndOffset(message, duration, gravity, xOffset, yOffset) method adds the ability to specify an offset with in pixels.

Starting with Android 11 (API level 30), setting the gravity has no effect on text toasts. Read about the changes here.
