Upgrading from React Native 0.44.0 to 0.69.12 is a massive undertaking that involves significant breaking changes across the entire framework, build systems, and dependencies. This is not a simple version bump; it is a major project migration that will require extensive refactoring and testing.

Key Breaking Changes:

• Build System & Autolinking (v0.60+): The manual react-native link command is deprecated. The upgrade introduces autolinking, which relies on CocoaPods for iOS and Gradle for Android to automatically link native dependencies. All existing manually linked libraries must be unlinked and projects must be reconfigured to use this new system.
• AndroidX Migration (v0.60+): React Native has migrated from the Android Support Library to AndroidX. This is a mandatory and breaking change for all Android projects. All native code and third-party dependencies must also be migrated to AndroidX. A tool called jetifier can help automate parts of this for dependencies.
• Core Component Extraction (v0.60+): Many APIs and components have been removed from the core library and extracted into community-managed packages. This includes WebView, NetInfo, and Geolocation. You will need to add these as separate dependencies and update your code to import them from their new locations.
• React 18 & New Architecture (v0.69+): Version 0.69 introduces support for React 18 and the New Architecture (Fabric renderer and TurboModules). While the New Architecture is opt-in, React 18 is enabled by default and brings its own set of changes and improvements.
• CLI Command Changes (v0.69+): The React Native CLI removed several commands, including link, unlink, install, and uninstall, in favor of autolinking and standard package manager workflows.

Recommendation:

A direct, in-place upgrade across this many versions is extremely high-risk and likely to fail. The recommended approach is:

1. Use the React Native Upgrade Helper web tool to see the code-level changes between versions. However, it's best used for smaller increments.
2. The most practical strategy is to create a new project using the target version (0.69.12) and systematically migrate your application source code, assets, and dependencies into the new project structure. This ensures you start with a clean, modern build configuration.
3. Thoroughly audit all third-party dependencies for compatibility with React Native 0.69 and AndroidX.
