Answer 1

This also took me ages... with better info it would have been 5 minutes! I use react-native-fs to get directories (which works for ios and android): var RNFS = require('react-native-fs'); RNFS.DocumentDirectoryPath then returns something like '/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/15AC1CC6-8CFF-48F0-AFFD-949368383ACB/Documents' on iOS My Image element looks like: My problem was that I did not set width and height first, which is not needed for urls or paths to assets. When using a base64 uri the width and height are also mandatory (that actually led me to the solution!).
