How to debug with breakpoints in React Native

Please help me how to debug in react native with breakpoints, I found only solution for android real devices, but unable to debug with android emulator and iOS simulator.

Solution
    1. Install React Native Debugger tool 
      brew update && brew install --cask react-native-debugger
brew reinstall --cask react-native-debugger
    2. Quit Google Chrome if it's already running.
    3. Launch the React Native Debugger app from the Applications folder.
    4. Activate iOS simulator and Run command+d using keyboard. In the debug menu select the "Debug JS Remotely" option.
    5. Go to React Native Debugger. Select 'Toggle Developer Tools' sub menu item from 'View' menu.
    6. Select Sources tab (in the React Native Debugger window).
    7. In the left side menu, expand RNDebuggerWorker.js and expand sub option localhost:****. You will see the project root folder.
    8. Select a .js file and add a break point. The break point will get activated when the respective line is executed.
    9. You can see the console logs in the console area at the bottom.
