Troubleshooting "undefined is not an object (evaluating 'RNSound.IsAndroid')"

[paulmelnikow]

The most common problem developers experience with this library is undefined is not an object (evaluating 'RNSound.IsAndroid').

This is caused by the library's native code not being linked. This is a tooling issue and seems to have a variety of different specific resolutions, depending on your environment.

• undefined is not an object (evaluating 'RNSound.IsAndroid') #471 (14 comments)

If you're experiencing this issue and want help troubleshooting it, please review those threads first. If you aren't able to resolve the problem, please open a new issue with a link to a project that reproduces the project, information about your environment, and information about the steps you have tried.

Meanwhile, it would be very helpful if someone could collect the troubleshooting advice from those sources, and write it up in the readme.

None of these fixed the issue in IOS at RN 0.60.4, also manual linking is not working at all.. So what to do?
