If you are using expo (>=26), then you can do it easily with the following lines of code. uploadImage = async(imageUri) => { const response = await fetch(imageUri); const blob = await response.blob(); var ref = firebase.storage().ref().child("image.jpg"); return ref.put(blob); } Reference: link to this video
