- If **yes** — use [composition hooks](#composition-hooks). These allow you to bundle multiple gestures — including previously composed ones — into a single object for a [`GestureDetector`](/docs/core-components/gesture-detectors).
- If **no** — use [relation properties](#cross-component-interactions) to manually define how gestures interact. Since these properties also support composed gestures, you can mix both methods for more complex layouts.

Clarify that the restriction applies to gesture instances, not APIs.

  • packages/docs-gesture-handler/docs/composition/overview.mdx#L13-L15: State that relations cannot connect gestures created with the hook-based API and gestures created with previous APIs.
  • packages/docs-gesture-handler/docs/guides/upgrading-to-3.mdx#L177-L179: Apply the same wording so the upgrade guidance matches the composition overview.

stating that relations cannot connect gestures created with the hook-based API
to gestures created with previous APIs. Apply the same wording in
packages/docs-gesture-handler/docs/guides/upgrading-to-3.mdx lines 177-179 so
both documentation locations consistently describe the restriction as applying
to gesture instances.

## Composition hooks

- [`useCompetingGestures`](/docs/composition/use-competing-gestures) — only one of the provided gestures can become active at the same time. The first gesture to activate cancels the rest.

### Composed gestures

Previously, composed gestures were created using `Gesture` object. In Gesture Handler 3, relations are set up using relation hooks.
