Trackeep/mobile

Trackeep Mobile (React Native)

Cross-platform mobile shell for Trackeep using React Native + Expo.

Architecture

• Same UI as web: after login, the app renders your Trackeep web app (/app) inside a native WebView.
• One backend, one data plane: mobile uses your self-hosted Trackeep instance URL and the same API/auth as web.
• Mobile-native extras:
  • incoming phone share intent (links, YouTube URLs, text, files)
  • quick share panel to save bookmarks immediately
  • shared files upload directly to Trackeep Files

Implemented Features

• Instance setup and validation (/health, /api/version)
• Native login/register (/api/v1/auth/...) with secure token storage
• Token bootstrap into WebView localStorage so web UI works immediately
• Native/Web bridge for auth + route state sync
• Android hardware back support for in-web navigation
• External links open in system browser while Trackeep pages stay in-app
• Mobile route shortcuts (Dashboard/Bookmarks/Tasks/Notes/Files/YouTube/Time)
• Incoming share flow:
  • Save shared links/YouTube as bookmarks (POST /api/v1/bookmarks)
  • Smart link metadata enrichment (POST /api/v1/bookmarks/metadata)
  • YouTube-aware action: Save + Open YouTube
  • Upload shared files (POST /api/v1/files/upload)
  • Broader Android share MIME support (text/plain, text/uri-list, text/*, image/*, video/*, application/*)
• Trackeep-branded mobile icon/splash copied from main project assets

Prerequisites

• Node.js 18+
• npm 10+
• Reachable Trackeep backend

Run

From repository root:

npm install
npm --workspace mobile run typecheck
npm --workspace mobile run start

Important: Share Intent Requires Dev Client

Incoming share from other apps requires native code (expo-share-intent), so Expo Go is not enough. Use a dev client or production build:

npm --workspace mobile run prebuild:clean
npm --workspace mobile run android:run
# or
npm --workspace mobile run ios:run

npm --workspace mobile run start:dev-client

patch-package is already configured at repository root to apply the required xcode@3.0.1 patch during install.

Share Examples

• Share a YouTube link from YouTube app → Trackeep Mobile appears in share sheet → Save to bookmarks.
• Share a webpage URL from browser → Save to bookmarks.
• Share an image/file from gallery/files app → Upload to Trackeep Files.

Instance URL examples

• Production: https://trackeep.example.com
• Android emulator local backend: http://10.0.2.2:8080
• iOS simulator local backend: http://localhost:8080

Notes

• Switching instance URL clears session intentionally (instance-isolated auth).
• If the share extension is not detected in Expo Go, this is expected; use dev client or release build.
