I have hit a strange issue. The onPress handler in my button does not fire when I run my app in debug mode. When I stop running the app in debug mode, the buttons work as expected.
Debugging works on my emulator, but fails on a real device.
Details:
OS: Mac
react: "16.11.0"
react-native: "0.62.2"

/**

const styles = StyleSheet.create({

});
export default App;
Anyone else run into the same issue?
Thanks,
Update: I tried creating a new project, added a simple button and then tried debugging. The issue is reproducible.
