Environment

Environment: OS: macOS High Sierra 10.13.3 Node: 9.2.1 Yarn: 1.3.2 npm: 5.6.0 Watchman: 4.9.0 Xcode: Xcode 9.2 Build version 9C40b Android Studio: 3.0 AI-171.4443003

standalone (via exp build)

Steps to Reproduce

1. add assets to the app
2. add assetBundlePatterns to app.json

"assetBundlePatterns": [ "src/assets/images/**" ] 3. exp build:android 4. Install apk via adb 5. turn internet off on the phone 6. launch the app

Expected Behavior

All assets are loaded offline

Actual Behavior

Only some assets are loaded. After first internet connection, all missing assets are loaded

Additional info

After inspecting the generated apk, I did see all the bundled assets loaded there, but maybe the Image fetcher does not find them.

Is it possible to bundle html files for the build android webview? Because the syntax should look like: {uri: ‘file:///android_asset/some.html’}. Is it possible to bundle these files into android to access it faster? Thanks @janicduplessis

This should be fixed with the latest sdk release.
