# Native modules

Cross-platform wrappers around device APIs that are not part of the
view tree: camera, GPS, file I/O, notifications, clipboard, share
sheet, deep links, permissions, connectivity, secure storage, battery,
haptics, and biometrics. Each module is implemented twice (once per
platform) and dispatches at runtime based on the `IS_ANDROID` and
`IS_IOS` flags from `pythonnative.utils`, with a safe desktop fallback.

Both synchronous and coroutine APIs exist (chosen to match the
platform call). For the call-site patterns, the reactive
`use_app_state` / `use_net_info` hooks, and the runtime coroutines are
scheduled on, see the [Native modules guide](../guides/native-modules.md)
and the [Async + data guide](../guides/async.md).
