How to enable live reload in react native on android?

I was BLIND. It clearly states:

On Android shake the device or press hardware menu button (available on older devices and in most of the emulators, e.g. in genymotion you can press ⌘ + m or F2 to simulate hardware menu button click). You can also install Frappé, a tool for OS X, which allows you to emulate shaking of devices remotely. You can use ⌘ + Shift + R as a shortcut to trigger a shake from Frappé.


Executing the command, the configuration menu will appear adb shell input keyevent 82

  • Then select the Enable Live Reload option from the popup.
