One of the problems with React Native is that it tries to have a common abstraction over two pretty different platforms.

In some areas it succeeded e.g. form controls in other it's pretty poor e.g. navigation.

Also, such abstraction is probably difficult to port existing applications to. And there could be a mismatch with some applications (games?) that simply want lower level abstractions.
