Can’t generate a QR code from the command line on Mac OS.
This is the error :
Could not access packager status at ht tp://localhost:19003/status. Are you sure the packager is running and reachable?
I have switched on the debug flag and get the following :
[09:34:56] Using project at /Users/davidburbage/exp/myapp3

Like another poster, I couldn’t find the desktop tools that were referenced in another answer. I looked at the Expo Tools page but there wasn’t a desktop tool there!
I read the blog post here :
which suggests that the command line interface should open a browser window with the dev tool in it, but it doesn’t. It gives me the error message above.
Totally baffled!
