[Fatme]

The problem can be reproduced only when node_modules/ios-sim-portable/node_modules/fibers exists. The fix is to delete it.

[vchimev]

@Fatme, what could be the reason for node_modules/ios-sim-portable/node_modules/fibers to exists?

[rvanzon]

Does this bug still exist? I am using a clean install.

1. tns create test1
2. cd test1
3. tns livesync ios --emulator --watch
4. I get [object Object] is not a future

There is no node_modules/ios-sim-portable/node_modules/fibers

[rvanzon]

I just found out that tns device also gives [object Object] is not a future in red, above the help lines.

[nikolal]

I am also getting [object Object] is not a future when I run tns livesync ios --emulator --watch.
tns run --emulator ios is working.
