[Request] Key Generation Feature

[GSFZamai]

Hi there, hope you're all fine.
First of all thank you for the lib! 🙌
I've a question.
Do you plan to implement the key generation feature in the future 🙏
Or recommend other lib (I'm concerned to use react-native-biometrics because it's not beeing mantained anymore).
In fact I only need a way to nivalidate when biometrics (fingerprints or facial ids) are changed or added. With react-native-biometrics the generated keys are invalidated when that happens.
Thank you for your time!

Hi @GSFZamai.
I'm currently in the same boat as you. I need to implement biometrics with key generation. react-native-biometrics doesn't look like its being maintained anymore. What did you end up doing?

Hi there, hope you're fine!
I've talked with developers of other library. And they implemented it. I didn't test yet on iOS (On Android works fine)

Heres the lib:
react-native-biometric-next.

Let me know if it works, please. I'll implement it in a near future.

Hi everyone!

I noticed this feature request about biometric key generation and biometric-change invalidation. Since libraries like react-native-biometrics are no longer actively maintained, I wanted to share that I’ve developed a new library calle react-native-easy-biometrics

It includes:

Secure RSA 2048 key generation
Automatic key invalidation when biometrics change (fingerprints / Face ID)
Multiple key aliases and biometric-protected signatures
Fully supported on both iOS and Android

These capabilities match the feature requested in this issue.

If this is still needed, feel free to check it out — any feedback or contributions are welcome!
