Edit Jan 2021  The React Native docs currently recommend React Native WebView   lt WebView     originWhitelist             source    html    lt p gt Here I am lt  p gt        gt   https   github com react-native-webview react-native-webview  Edit March 2017  the html prop has been deprecated  Use source instead   lt WebView source   html    lt p gt Here I am lt  p gt       gt   https   facebook github io react-native docs webview html html Thanks to Justin for pointing this out   Edit Feb 2017  the PR was accepted a while back  so to render HTML in React Native  simply   lt WebView html    lt p gt Here I am lt  p gt      gt    Original Answer  I don t think this is currently possible  The behavior you re seeing is expected  since the Text component only outputs    well  text  You need another component that outputs HTML - and that s the WebView  Unfortunately right now there s no way of just directly setting the HTML on this component  https   github com facebook react-native issues 506 However I ve just created this PR which implements a basic version of this feature so hopefully it ll land in some form soonish
