## Releases

### v9.3.0

- Date: 2026-05-15
- Version: v9.3.0
- Original notes: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/releases/tag/v9.3.0
- Permalink: https://whatsnew.fyi/product/react-redux/releases/v9.3.0

This **feature release** officially marks the `connect` API as deprecated.

That's it. That's the release. :)

##### Changelog

###### `connect` deprecation

Way back in 2022, [I officially marked the original Redux core `createStore` method as deprecated in Redux 4.2.0](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux/releases/tag/v4.2.0).  As I clearly stated in that release, the goal of marking `createStore` as deprecated was to encourage users to migrate to modern Redux Toolkit, especially for those users who don't read our docs (such as beginners following outdated tutorials or in bootcamps, etc).  The change was visual-only - adding `@deprecated` just marks the import with a strikethrough in an IDE, and the docblock references the "use modern Redux Toolkit" docs page.  No runtime errors, no behavior changes, just an indication that the function is considered obsolete and you shouldn't use it directly any more.  I also exported a `legacy_createStore` alias - same function, no deprecation attribute.

It's 4 years later, and I'm finally doing the same thing for `connect` :)

Again, **nothing about `connect`'s behavior is changing, and we do not intend to remove the `connect` API**.  But it's 2026, and hooks are the correct way to use React and React-Redux today.

We _do_ strongly encourage users to [migrate from `connect` to the `useSelector / useDispatch` hooks](https://redux.js.org/usage/migrating-to-modern-redux#modernizing-react-components-with-react-redux) in general.  This should result in codebases that are easier to understand and ought to improve performance slightly due to the way updates are handled.

As with before, React-Redux now exports a `legacy_connect` alias that does not have the deprecation attribute applied.

###### Trusted Publishing Fixed

We had set up trusted publishing for React-Redux a couple years ago and did some releases with that enabled, but at some point I did a follow-up release that still used the previous manual workflow, and that lost the trusted publishing provenance flag.  We had recent issues requesting a new release with trusted publishing enabled again, so we've fixed that with this release.

##### What's Changed

* Mark `connect` as deprecated by @markerikson in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2269

### v9.2.0

- Date: 2024-12-10
- Version: v9.2.0
- Original notes: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/releases/tag/v9.2.0
- Permalink: https://whatsnew.fyi/product/react-redux/releases/v9.2.0

This **feature release** updates the React peer dependency to work with React 19, and improves treeshakeability of our build artifacts.

##### Changelog

###### React 19 Compat

[React 19 was just released](https://react.dev/blog/2024/12/05/react-19)! We've updated our peer dep to accept React 19, and updated our runtime and type tests to check against both React 18 and 19.

Also see [Redux Toolkit v2.5.0](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-toolkit/releases/tag/v2.5.0) for the same peer dep update.

###### Treeshaking

We've done some nitty-gritty optimization work to ensure bundlers correctly treeshake unused parts of the bundle.

##### What's Changed

* Improve treeshakeability of build artifacts by @aryaemami59 in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2176
* Migrate to React by @aryaemami59 in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2172
* Migrate to React 19 (take 2) by @markerikson in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2216

**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/compare/v9.1.2...v9.2.0

### v9.1.2

- Date: 2024-05-02
- Version: v9.1.2
- Original notes: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/releases/tag/v9.1.2
- Permalink: https://whatsnew.fyi/product/react-redux/releases/v9.1.2

This **bugfix release** removes the no-longer-necessary peer dependency on `react-native`, and tweaks a few TS types for compat with the upcoming React 19 release.

##### Changes

###### React Native Peer Dependency Removed

We've always had an awkward peer dependency on _both_ ReactDOM and React Native, because of the need to import the `unstable_batchedUpdates` API directly from each reconciler. That's part of what led to the sequence of 9.x patch releases to deal with RN compat.

As of 9.0.3, we dropped the batching imports completely, since React 18 now batches by default.  That means we didn't even have any remaining imports from `react-native`.

Meanwhile, React 18.3 just came out, but so did React Native 0.74. RN 0.74 still requires React 18.2.

This caused NPM users to have installation failures when trying to use React-Redux:

- React-Redux has a peer dep on RN
- RN has a peer dep on React 18.2
- But the _latest_ React, 18.3 would get installed in the app
- NPM errors with a peer dep mismatch

We no longer need to list RN as a peer dep, and dropping that also fixes the NPM installation issues as well.

##### What's Changed

* Fix `useRef` usages to be called with an explicit argument of `undefined`. by @aryaemami59 in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2164
* Replace usage of deprecated `JSX` global namespace with `React.JSX` by @aryaemami59 in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2163
* Drop now-unneeded RN peer dep by @markerikson in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2167
* Fix remaining React 19 types issues by @markerikson in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2168

**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/compare/v9.1.1...v9.1.2

### v9.1.1

- Date: 2024-04-14
- Version: v9.1.1
- Original notes: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/releases/tag/v9.1.1
- Permalink: https://whatsnew.fyi/product/react-redux/releases/v9.1.1

This bugfix release fixes an issue with `connect` and React Native caused by changes to our bundling setup in v9.  Nested `connect` calls should work correctly now.

##### What's Changed

* Remove unused isProcessingDispatch by @Connormiha in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2122
* Move `Equals` constraint into an intersection type. by @DanielRosenwasser in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2123
* Fix `useIsomorphicLayoutEffect` usage in React Native environments by @aryaemami59 in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2156

**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/compare/v9.1.0...v9.1.1

### v9.1.0

- Date: 2024-01-12
- Version: v9.1.0
- Original notes: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/releases/tag/v9.1.0
- Permalink: https://whatsnew.fyi/product/react-redux/releases/v9.1.0

This **minor release** adds a new syntax for pre-typing hooks.

##### `.withTypes`
Previously, the approach for "pre-typing" hooks with your app settings was a little varied. The result would look something like the below:

```ts
import type { TypedUseSelectorHook } from "react-redux"
import { useDispatch, useSelector, useStore } from "react-redux"
import type { AppDispatch, AppStore, RootState } from "./store"

export const useAppDispatch: () => AppDispatch = useDispatch
export const useAppSelector: TypedUseSelectorHook<RootState> = useSelector
export const useAppStore = useStore as () => AppStore
```

React Redux v9.1.0 adds a new `.withTypes` method to each of these hooks, analogous to the [`.withTypes`](https://redux-toolkit.js.org/usage/usage-with-typescript#defining-a-pre-typed-createasyncthunk) method found on Redux Toolkit's `createAsyncThunk`.

The setup now becomes:

```ts
import { useDispatch, useSelector, useStore } from "react-redux"
import type { AppDispatch, AppStore, RootState } from "./store"

export const useAppDispatch = useDispatch.withTypes<AppDispatch>()
export const useAppSelector = useSelector.withTypes<RootState>()
export const useAppStore = useStore.withTypes<AppStore>()
```

##### What's Changed
* Update hooks.md — reselect usage with multiple instances simplified by @VorontsovIE in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2110
* Modernize ESLint configuration by @aryaemami59 in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2115
* Introduce pre-typed hooks via `hook.withTypes<RootState>()` method by @aryaemami59 in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2114

##### New Contributors
* @VorontsovIE made their first contribution in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2110

**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/compare/v9.0.4...v9.1.0

### v9.0.4

- Date: 2023-12-11
- Version: v9.0.4
- Original notes: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/releases/tag/v9.0.4
- Permalink: https://whatsnew.fyi/product/react-redux/releases/v9.0.4

This **bugfix release** updates the React Native peer dependency to be `>= 0.69`, to better reflect the need for React 18 compat and (hopefully) resolve issues with the `npm` package manager throwing peer dep errors on install.

##### What's Changed
* Allow react-native newer than 0.69 as peer dependency by @R3DST0RM in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2107

**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/compare/v9.0.3...v9.0.4

### v9.0.3

- Date: 2023-12-11
- Version: v9.0.3
- Original notes: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/releases/tag/v9.0.3
- Permalink: https://whatsnew.fyi/product/react-redux/releases/v9.0.3

This **bugfix release** drops the ReactDOM / React Native specific use of render batching, as React 18 now automatically batches, and updates the React types dependencies

##### Changelog

###### Batching Dependency Updates

React-Redux has long depended on React's `unstable_batchedUpdates` API to help batch renders queued by Redux updates.  It also re-exported that method as a util named `batch`.

However, React 18 now auto-batches all queued renders in the same event loop tick, so `unstable_batchedUpdates` is effectively a no-op. 

Using `unstable_batchedUpdates` has always been a pain point, because it's exported by the renderer package (ReactDOM or React Native), rather than the core `react` package. Our prior implementation relied on having separate `batch.ts` and `batch.native.ts` files in the codebase, and expecting React Native's bundler to find the right transpiled file at app build time.  Now that we're pre-bundling artifacts in React-Redux v9, that approach has become a problem.

Given that React 18 already batches by default, there's no further need to continue using `unstable_batchedUpdates` internally, so we've removed our use of that and simplified the internals.

We still export a `batch` method, but it's effectively a no-op that just immediately runs the given callback, and we've marked it as `@deprecated`.

We've also updated the build artifacts and packaging, as there's no longer a need for an `alternate-renderers` entry point that omits batching, or a separate artifact that imports from `"react-native"`.

##### What's Changed

* Drop renderer-specific batching behavior and deprecate `batch` by @markerikson in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2104
* Drop `@types/react-dom` and lower `@types/react` to min needed by @markerikson in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2105

- Original notes: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/releases/tag/v9.0.2
- Permalink: https://whatsnew.fyi/product/react-redux/releases/v9.0.2

This **bugfix release** makes additional tweaks to the React Native artifact filename to help resolve import and bundling issues with RN projects.

##### What's Changed

* Change react-native output extension from `.mjs` to `.js` by @aryaemami59 in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2102

- Original notes: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/releases/tag/v9.0.1
- Permalink: https://whatsnew.fyi/product/react-redux/releases/v9.0.1

This **bugfix release** updates the package to include a new `react-redux.react-native.js` bundle that specifically imports React Native, and consolidates all of the `'react'` imports into one file to save on bundle size (and enable some tricky React Native import handling).

##### What's Changed

* Add an RN-specific bundle and consolidate imports by @markerikson in https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/pull/2100


**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/compare/v9.0.0...v9.0.1

### v9.0.0

- Date: 2023-12-04
- Version: v9.0.0
- Original notes: https://github.com/reduxjs/react-redux/releases/tag/v9.0.0
- Permalink: https://whatsnew.fyi/product/react-redux/releases/v9.0.0

This **major release**:

- Switches to requiring React 18 and Redux Toolkit 2.0 / Redux 5.0
- Updates the packaging for better ESM/CJS compatibility and modernizes the build output
- Updates the options for dev mode checks in `useSelector`
- Adds a new React Server Components artifact that throws on use, to better indicate compat issues

This release has **breaking changes**.

This release is part of a wave of major versions of all the Redux packages: **Redux Toolkit 2.0, Redux core 5.0, React-Redux 9.0, Reselect 5.0, and Redux Thunk 3.0**.

For full details on all of the breaking changes and other significant changes to all of those packages, see the **["Migrating to RTK 2.0 and Redux 5.0" migration guide](https://redux.js.org/usage/migrations/migrating-rtk-2)** in the Redux docs.

> [!NOTE] 
> The Redux core, Reselect, and Redux Thunk packages are included as part of Redux Toolkit, and RTK users do not need to manually upgrade them - you'll get them as part of the upgrade to RTK 2.0.  (If you're not using Redux Toolkit yet, [**please start migrating your existing legacy Redux code to use Redux Toolkit today!**](https://redux.js.org/usage/migrating-to-modern-redux))
> React-Redux is a separate, package, but we expect you'll be upgrading them together.

```bash
#### React-Redux
npm install react-redux
yarn add react-redux

#### RTK
npm install @reduxjs/toolkit
yarn add @reduxjs/toolkit

#### Standalone Redux core
npm install redux
yarn add redux
```

##### Changelog

###### React 18 and RTK 2 / Redux core 5 Are Required

React-Redux 7.x and 8.x worked with all versions of React that had hooks (16.8+, 17.x, 18.x).  However, React-Redux v8 used React 18's new `useSyncExternalStore` hook.  In order to maintain backwards compatibility with older React versions, we used the `use-sync-external-store` "shim" package that provided an official userland implementation of the `useSyncExternalStore` hook when used with React 16 or 17.  This meant that if you _were_ using React 18, there were a few hundred extra bytes of shim code being imported even though it wasn't needed.

For React-Redux v9, we're switching so that **React 18 is now _required_!**  This both simplifies the maintenance burden on our side (fewer versions of React to test against), and also lets us drop the extra bytes because we can import `useSyncExternalStore` directly.

React 18 has been out for a year and a half, and other libraries like React Query are also switching to require React 18 in their next major version.  This seems like a reasonable time to make that switch.

Similarly, React-Redux now depends on Redux core v5 for updated TS types (but not runtime behavior).  We strongly encourage all Redux users to be using Redux Toolkit, which already includes the Redux core.  Redux Toolkit 2.0 comes with Redux core 5.0 built in.

###### ESM/CJS Package Compatibility

The biggest theme of the Redux v5 and RTK 2.0 releases is trying to get "true" ESM package publishing compatibility in place, while still supporting CJS in the published package.

**The primary build artifact is now an ESM file, `dist/react-redux.mjs`**.  Most build tools should pick this up.  There's also a CJS artifact, and a second copy of the ESM file named `react-redux.legacy-esm.js` to support Webpack 4 (which does not recognize the `exports` field in `package.json`).  There's also two special-case artifacts: an "alternate renderers" artifact that should be used for any renderer other than ReactDOM or React Native (such as the `ink` React CLI renderer), and a React Server Components artifact that throws when any import is used (since using hooks or context would error anyway in an RSC environment).  Additionally, all of the build artifacts now live under `./dist/` in the published package.

Previous releases actually shipped separate individual transpiled source files - the build artifacts are now pre-bundled, same as the rest of the Redux libraries.
