Description

I was being driven crazy by the fact that Chrome CMD+R suddenly stopped working and no matter what I did, incognito mode, disabling all extensions, nothing would make it work again.

Then searching on the Internet I found that perhaps some other application was conflicting with it and [downloaded ShortcutDetective](https://formulae.brew.sh/cask/shortcutdetective), and bingo! It was that. It reported that the React Native Debugger app was listening to the event, even though it was in the background and I had Chrome focused.

I realize that this might be a quirk behavior due to the fact that RN debugger uses Chrome Devtools under the hood, but I haven't ever had this problem occur with the DevTools of Chrome itself (reload being hijacked when it's not focused).

React Native Debugger app version: 0.11.8
React Native version: 0.64.1
Platform: iOS, Android
Is real device of platform: Yes
Operating System: macOS
