I had the very same issue. Adding this to the android manifest did the trick:

<application
...
android:usesCleartextTraffic="true">
...
</application>

• Android 8: Cleartext HTTP traffic not permitted

You need to install the app on your emulator by running

npm run android

or

npx react-native run android

then start your mentor server by

npm start

if you don't install this app on your device , you must use

react-native run android

to install app , then go for next try you can use start and open app manually
