Introduction

All native platforms support "Touch Tool" info that indicates the pointer type. This should be included in React Native natively.

Details

All native platforms know to identify what is the pointer type that triggered a touch event:

Discussion points

My proposal is to add touchTool field to React Native touch events that will return one of:

  • finger
  • pen
  • eraser
  • unknown

That will be chosen per the native platform event info
