I need to create social network buttons inside my app to redirect to the page in question.

Example:

By clicking the facebook icon button I will stop at the page in question through the URL by opening the browser or the facebook app.

You can use the native method Linking react Native!

Example:

import { Linking, ToastAndroid } from 'react-native'

const openUrl = async(url) => {
  if(await Linking.canOpenURL(url)) {
    await Linking.openURL(url)
  }
  else {
    ToastAndroid.show('Can\'t open this URL', ToastAndroid.SHORT)
  }
}

Now just implement this function within the function onPress from the button, passing the link you want as argument.
