Research direction

Start with the React Native Empower Plant sample app and its App.tsx entry point, including the existing feedbackIntegration() and mobileReplayIntegration() setup. Trace the current profiling, app-start, ANR, replay, breadcrumb, and attribute demos before making the listed improvements. Done means each requested behavior is demonstrable and the obsolete custom feedback modal and other cleanup are removed.

Description

Improvement React-Native

Improvements for the React Native sample app (Empower Plant demo):

  • Remove the custom UserFeedbackModal (built-in feedbackIntegration() is already active in App.tsx)
  • Add hermesProfilingIntegration() explicitly instead of relying on profilesSampleRate alone
  • Call Sentry.appLoaded() / reportFullyDisplayed() to demo standalone app-start + manual TTFD
  • Add a "Block JS Thread" button to demo ANR detection (currently on by default but never exercised)
  • Configure networkRequestHeaders / networkResponseHeaders in the existing mobileReplayIntegration() init
  • Add a rage-tap button (10 rapid taps) to trigger the ui.multiClick breadcrumb
  • Demo top-level Sentry.setAttribute / setAttributes (available in v8.17+)
  • General cleanup

Already implemented / no longer needed:

  • SDK upgrade (currently at 8.19.0)
  • beforeSendTransaction counterpart to existing beforeSend
  • httpClientIntegration() for non-2xx capture
  • mobileReplayIntegration() with networkDetailAllowUrls and networkCaptureBodies
