### Question

Hi,  
I’m working on integrating the Bitmovin player into a React Native iOS mobile app. I followed the sample code from the Bitmovin documentation, but the full-screen button is not appearing.  
Can you help me resolve this issue?  
Thanks

Hi @nicholas.stokes_bitc!

I assume you mean [this guide](https://developer.bitmovin.com/playback/docs/enabling-fullscreen-playback).

Do you see any error messages?

What is crucial is to pass `fullscreenHandler={fullscreenHandler}` to the `<PlayerView>` component, might be easy to miss.

Also make sure that your implementation of the `FullscreenHandler` is a `class` and an instance of it is held in a reference (`useRef`).  
When passing this to `PlayerView` you need to pass the current value not the reference, e.g. `<PlayerView fullscreenHandler={fullscreenHandler.current}>`.

You can also check out our open-source example implementation [here](https://github.com/bitmovin/bitmovin-player-react-native/blob/development/example/src/screens/BasicFullscreenHandling.tsx).
