Offline bundling in debug mode for iOS on React-Native

I'm using Firebase App Distribution feature to send my co-workers some production builds, so I need an .ipa file but I'm having trouble generating it with offline bundling on debug mode for iOS.

To generate the bundle (main.jsbundle), I run this command:

react-native bundle --dev true --entry-file index.js --bundle-output ios/main.jsbundle --platform ios

The way I'm generating the .ipa is by archiving the app in xcode on debug mode and distributing for "Developers".

Distribution

In the end, when I download the app via Firebase, it requires for the bundler to be running, it is not a stand-alone app. Does anyone have an idea on whats happening?
