> By default, iOS will block any request that's not encrypted using [SSL](https://hosting.review/web-hosting-glossary/#12). If you need to fetch from a cleartext URL (one that begins with `http`) you will first need to [add an App Transport Security exception](integration-with-existing-apps.md#test-your-integration). If you know ahead of time what domains you will need access to, it is more secure to add exceptions only for those domains; if the domains are not known until runtime you can [disable ATS completely](integration-with-existing-apps.md#app-transport-security). Note however that from January 2017, [Apple's App Store review will require reasonable justification for disabling ATS](https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/48979). See [Apple's documentation](https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/General/Reference/InfoPlistKeyReference/Articles/CocoaKeys.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40009251-SW33) for more information.

> On Android, as of API Level 28, clear text traffic is also blocked by default. This behaviour can be overridden by setting [`android:usesCleartextTraffic`](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/application-element#usesCleartextTraffic) in the app manifest file.

### Using Other Networking Libraries

The [XMLHttpRequest API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/XMLHttpRequest) is built into React Native. This means that you can use third party libraries such as [frisbee](https://github.com/niftylettuce/frisbee) or [axios](https://github.com/mzabriskie/axios) that depend on it, or you can use the XMLHttpRequest API directly if you prefer.
