react-native run-android not working in mac

Question

I am trying to run the react-native application using react-native run-android but getting the error " Failed to connect to development server using 'adb reverse':spawnSync adb ENOENT "

Also when I try to run adb devices -bash: adb: command not found

Did you install `adb`? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31374085/installing-adb-on-macos — Miroslav Papírník, Dec 17 '19 at 09:58
Yes it was installed but then I reinstalled it through brew and it is working. — user11426267, Dec 18 '19 at 14:29

I got the same issue. I updated my ANDROID_HOME env variable again it worked for me.

Follow this React-native android-setup documentation

ex:

export ANDROID_HOME=~/Library/Android/sdk

Windows:

set

ANDROID_HOME=c:/Users/whoever/AppData/Local/Android/Sdk
Mac:

1 - Open your bash profile:

open .bash_profile

Add this to your bash_profile:

export ANDROID_SDK=/Users/<your_computer_name>/Library/Android/sdk
 export PATH=/Users/<your_computer_name>/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools:$PATH

Save and close

Compile your changes

source ~/.bash_profile

Please get your settings updated with latest version.
