If you're unable to load your app on your phone due to a network timeout or a refused connection, a good first step is to verify that your phone and computer are on the same network and that they can reach each other. Create React Native App needs access to ports 19000 and 19001 so ensure that your network and firewall settings allow access from your device to your computer on both of these ports.
Try opening a web browser on your phone and opening the URL that the packager script prints, replacing exp://
with http://
. So, for example, if underneath the QR code in your terminal you see:
exp://192.168.0.1:19000
Try opening Safari or Chrome on your phone and loading
http://192.168.0.1:19000
and
http://192.168.0.1:19001
If this works, but you're still unable to load your app by scanning the QR code, please open an issue on the Create React Native App repository with details about these steps and any other error messages you may have received.
If you're not able to load the http
URL in your phone's web browser, try using the tethering/mobile hotspot feature on your phone (beware of data usage, though), connecting your computer to that WiFi network, and restarting the packager.
If you're on a Mac, there are a few errors that users sometimes see when attempting to npm run ios
:
- "non-zero exit code: 107"
- "You may need to install Xcode" but it is already installed
- and others
There are a few steps you may want to take to troubleshoot these kinds of errors:
- Make sure Xcode is installed and open it to accept the license agreement if it prompts you. You can install it from the Mac App Store.
- Open Xcode's Preferences, the Locations tab, and make sure that the
Command Line Tools
menu option is set to something. Sometimes when the CLI tools are first installed by Homebrew this option is left blank, which can prevent Apple utilities from finding the simulator. Make sure to re-runnpm/yarn run ios
after doing so. - If that doesn't work, open the Simulator, and under the app menu select
Reset Contents and Settings...
. After that has finished, quit the Simulator, and re-runnpm/yarn run ios
.
If you're not able to scan the QR code, make sure your phone's camera is focusing correctly, and also make sure that the contrast on the two colors in your terminal is high enough. For example, WebStorm's default themes may not have enough contrast for terminal QR codes to be scannable with the system barcode scanners that the Expo app uses.
If this causes problems for you, you may want to try changing your terminal's color theme to have more contrast, or running Create React Native App from a different terminal. You can also manually enter the URL printed by the packager script in the Expo app's search bar to load it manually.
