Have you read the Contributing Guidelines?

Yes

Environment

1. react-native -v:
   react-native-cli: 2.0.1
   react-native: 0.47.1
2. node -v:
   v7.10.0
3. npm -v:
   4.2.0
4. yarn --version:
   0.27.5

Then, specify:

• Target Platform: iOS and Android

• Development Operating System:
  macOS 10.12.6

• Build tools:
  Chrome 60.0.3112.90

Steps to Reproduce

(Write your steps here:)

1. Create a new react native project with react-native init NewProject
2. Add a console print to index.ios.js and index.android.js in the render method, e.g.

...
export default class NewProject extends Component {

  render() {
    console.log("This should be printed in console!");
    return (
      <View style={styles.container}>
        <Text style={styles.welcome}>
          Welcome to React Native!
        </Text>
        <Text style={styles.instructions}>
          To get started, edit index.ios.js
        </Text>
        <Text style={styles.instructions}>
          Press Cmd+R to reload,{'\n'}
          Cmd+D or shake for dev menu
        </Text>
      </View>
    );
  }
}
...

1. Run react-native run-ios from project root
2. Enable Remote Debugging
3. Open the console in Chrome
4. Refresh app and nothing gets printed

Expected Behavior

In step 6 the text This should be printed in console! should have been printed to Chrome console

Actual Behavior

Nothing gets printed to console.
I think the issue may be related to the Chrome release since it was after an upgrade it stopped working.

No issue here, for some reason a console filter where applied. I how no idea how though. Closing this.

[Clarkbaum]

yeah strange same thing happened to me. thankfully i found this thread so I bothered checking the filters

[dmatora]

having same problem, no filtering enabled

[dmatora]

solution was to run debug mode (production clears console.log while minifying the code)
