You can use the geo/maps link like this:

  const openAddressOnMap = (label, lat, lng) => {
    const scheme = Platform.select({
      ios: 'maps:0,0?q=',
      android: 'geo:0,0?q=',
    });
    const latLng = `${lat},${lng}`;
    const label = label;
    const url = Platform.select({
      ios: `${scheme}${label}@${latLng}`,
      android: `${scheme}${latLng}(${label})`,
    });
    Linking.openURL(url);
  };

I would recommend you use the expo-linking package. Check the docs for instructions on how to install and use. Even if you don't use Expo yet, you can use their SDKs by adding their base package (see this). As the docs say, if you want the additional functionality of directing the user to the Play store if Google Maps is not installed, you'll also need the react-native-app-link package.

Once you have the package installed you'll need to use the linking scheme provided by Google Maps, as described here

I am using Linking of react-native but it is not working properly. — Pooja, Sep 09 '22 at 03:55

as per Narevs answer in another post

You can try this below

const scheme = Platform.select({ ios: 'maps:0,0?q=', android: 'geo:0,0?q=' });
const latLng = `${lat},${lng}`;
const label = 'Custom Label';
const url = Platform.select({
  ios: `${scheme}${label}@${latLng}`,
  android: `${scheme}${latLng}(${label})`
});

    
Linking.openURL(url);

Hope it helps. feel free for doubts
