Expo Router integration improvement: Prefetch route performance measurement with automatically created spans by alwx · Pull Request #5606 · getsentry/sentry-react-native

alwx · 2026-02-02T11:00:25Z

📢 Type of change

Bugfix
New feature
Enhancement
Refactoring

📜 Description

Fixes #5423
What happens here is we create spans automatically if enablePrefetchTracking is set to true for the reactNavigationIntegration OR if the ExpoRouter is wrapped with Sentry.wrapExpoRouter() — it's done this way because there are two ways of using prefetch with ExpoRouter.

💚 How did you test it?

CI, manually

📝 Checklist

I added tests to verify changes
No new PII added or SDK only sends newly added PII if sendDefaultPII is enabled
I updated the docs if needed.
I updated the wizard if needed.
All tests passing
No breaking changes

StartSpanOptions doesn't actually have an origin attribute but SpanAttributes has sentry.origin which is what I added and also added those to tests.
@antonis it's ready for a second look.

samples/expo/app/(tabs)/index.tsx

  const { currentlyRunning } = useUpdates();
+  const rawRouter = useRouter();
+  // Wrap the router to monitor prefetch performance
+  const router = Sentry.wrapExpoRouter(rawRouter);


I'm getting an error

✖ sentry-react-native-expo-sample:fix /Users/antonis/git/sentry-react-native/samples/expo/app/(tabs)/index.tsx 18:25 error 'wrapExpoRouter' not found in imported namespace 'Sentry' import/namespace ✖ 1 problem (1 error, 0 warnings)

The PR is looking good! thank you.!
A minor note: should we also mention this on sentry docs?

antonis

LGTM 🚀
Let's wait for the tests to get 🟢 and merge

Makes sense 👍
