@mazicky Any luck resolving this issue?

[woonmayer]

@seanders Yes. When I use 'React' with cocoapod, this issue happens.

I used cocoapod-React because of other pod-library's dependency.

So I manually import other libraries that i use without cocoapod.

@mazicky I don't think I understood correctly, did you stopped using Pods? Or did you manually imported React?

[woonmayer]

@Fatxx I still use Pods. but I deleted 'React' and 'React'-dependency-libraries on Podfile.
I'm using React which is automatically imported when I initialize the project with react-native.

@mazicky thanks

Thank you so much - this has been driving me nuts for days!
Just commented out the React pod in my podfile, reran "pod install" and reran my app.
Shake the phone and bam! menu.

@roocell I glad to help you with my solution.

But it will be an issue when we use Pod-React dependency library.

I hope this will be fixed.

@mazicky sorry, but I'm confused as to what to do after removing React from my podfile.

For those who upgraded to RN 0.43-rc and can't use the Dev Menu anymore when RN is installed with CocoaPods, you now have to explicitly add the DevSupport subspec in your Podfile.

This and #13127 are duplicates.
