The official React Native documentation to run app on iOS device using offline bundle says

Open ios/YourApp/AppDelegate.m

Uncomment the line, jsCo

Answer 1

First I would make sure I have ios-deploy installed.

You can do so by running npm install -g ios-deploy

Then connect the iphone you want the app to be installed in into your mac.

Then run

react-native run-ios --device "ABC’s iPhone" --configuration=release

This would create a offline js bundled app and install it onto the iphone.

PS: If it errors out saying

Signing for "" requires a development team. 
Select a development team in the project editor.

Then open up the project inside ios/ in Xcode and Select the target -> General Tab Under signing choose the signing team and choose automatically manage signing.

Then save and re-run the command.
