Twilio Voice React Native SDK Conversation Relay Reference Component
Twilio Conversation Relay handles the real-time complexity of voice AI interactions - transcription, turn-taking, interruption handling, speech generation - so that your app logic stays focused on the conversation itself. We've published a reference component for the Twilio Voice React Native SDK to show how that works end-to-end on mobile.
Twilio Conversation Relay handles the real-time complexity of voice AI interactions - transcription, turn-taking, interruption handling, speech generation - so that your app logic stays focused on the conversation itself. We've published a reference component for the Twilio Voice React Native SDK to show how that works end-to-end on mobile.
The component ships as a single Expo app with both client-side code (Expo screens, React hooks, and components) and a Node.js backend, thus providing you with an integrated implementation.
What's included:
Outbound call to a voice AI agent: an end-to-end implementation using Twilio ConversationRelay and OpenAI.
The Expo layer handles call lifecycle and UI, while the backend manages the Conversation Relay session and AI provider connection. Use it as a starting point for your own app or as a reference while you build.
Check out the docs for more information, and please leave us any feedback you might have in the Twilio Voice React Native Reference Components GitHub repository. We can’t wait to see what you build!
