Route Inspector

+
UniversalWorks with Expo & React Native CLI

This tool works with both Expo and React Native CLI projects. Just install and go.

See every route in your app and track navigation in real-time. Browse your sitemap, jump to any screen, and debug navigation issues instantly.

Don't take our word for it — this is the real tool, running right here on mock navigations. The guided tour below walks one debugging story: hops stream in, a 38ms /login/account flash lands, you open the Login event, the Stack still has Login MOUNTED under Account FOCUSED, Clear wipes the timeline but not the stranded screen. Or skip the tour and just start tapping:

Real component, real navigations

Not a video — this is the shipped tool running on mock navigations. Path, params, and ms between hops land as you move.

Mock navigations, real component — the same code that renders in your app. Step through the tour, or just start tapping.

  • Params — Route parameters passed
  • Timestamp — When it happened
  • Duration — Time since previous navigation

Tap any event to open its detail page — the full route template, from/to paths, timing, segments, and params, all copyable, plus a Go to route action to jump straight there. This matches how events open in the Events tool.

FAQ

How do I inspect the navigation stack in React Native?

Install @buoy-gg/route-events and open Routes — the Stack tab shows the live stack with route names and params, updating as you navigate.

Does it work with Expo Router?

Yes — it's built for Expo Router: the sitemap, stack, and event stream all reflect your file-based routes.
