React Navigation how to hide tabbar from inside stack navigation

This is how I hide the tab bar in a specific screen in a stack (React Nav 5.x & 6.x)

import { getFocusedRouteNameFromRoute } from '@react-navigation/native';
const ProfileStack = createStackNavigator();
    
const ProfileNavigator = ({ navigation, route }) => {
        React.useLayoutEffect(() => {
            const routeName = getFocusedRouteNameFromRoute(route);
            if (routeName === "Group"){
                navigation.setOptions({tabBarVisible: false});
            }else {
                navigation.setOptions({tabBarVisible: true});
            }
        }, [navigation, route]);
        return(
            <ProfileStack.Navigator>
                <ProfileStack.Screen name="Profile" component={ProfileScreen} />
                <ProfileStack.Screen name="Group" component={GroupScreen} />
            </ProfileStack.Navigator>
        )};

If you guys have number of screens that need to hide the tabbar use a string array of those route names and hide tabbar if focused route name includes in that array

const tabHiddenRoutes = ["Group","Map"];

if(tabHiddenRoutes.includes(getFocusedRouteNameFromRoute(route))){
  navigation.setOptions({tabBarVisible: false});
 }else{
 navigation.setOptions({tabBarVisible: true});
}

[Edit] – In case of v6, use display because tabBarVisible is deprecated in the favour of tabBarStyle

if(tabHiddenRoutes.includes(getFocusedRouteNameFromRoute(route))){
  navigation.setOptions({tabBarStyle: {display: 'none'}});
 } else {
 navigation.setOptions({tabBarStyle: {display: 'flex'}});
}
