React Native - How to run on iOS device from xcode with DEV = FALSE

Question

When running my react native app on the connected iPhone I see that the app is being run with DEV=TRUE:

I am running the app by opening the xcode project file, and pressing the play button.

How can I do the same but make it run with DEV = false?

Hold the option key when you hit run in xcode and change the drop down from debug to release.

On the react website you can find how to do this

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

I did this. And indeed the bundle file is created, but this dose not change things. When I press play in xcode, I still get dev=true.
