Answer 1

You can't change parent opacity without affecting child, so you should have absolute positioned background. For proper child positioning, you should add an additional container. Check out this snack: snack.expo.io/SkaHLjzr8

  background: {
    ...StyleSheet.absoluteFillObject,
    backgroundColor: 'blue',
    opacity: .5,
    zIndex: 1,
