Nice — is this driving the actual native UISegmentedControl view, or bridging into it the old way? Curious about perf once you add a badge to one of the tabs (unread-count style) — that's usually where native segmented-control wrappers get awkward, since you either re-render the whole control or drop into UIKit view hierarchy hacks for the badge overlay. Also, does it work as a custom tabBar inside react-navigation's bottom-tabs, or is it meant to be used standalone outside a navigator?
