There are also two alternatives: https://apphub.io/ and https://microsoft.github.io/code-push/. Works for me in the real app very well, even in a synchronous mode in some cases.

One difference between this library and the two you linked to is that ours is fully self-contained -- no accounts/3rd party hosting required :)
The AppHub client is also open source [1] and can be configured to point to any backend [2]. We also support asset updates, and the client has been tested in many production apps.

With CodePush, AppHub, and this, it would be nice to have the community converge on a shared auto-updating client. Perhaps down the road we could see this functionality integrated into React Native itself.

Disclosure: I created AppHub

There's another one I came across recently also https://getsiphon.com/
