Be sure to follow the instructions of the library, after running yarn add react-native-photo-upload , you need to make sure to link the package and build the project again:

react-native link react-native-image-picker
react-native link react-native-image-resizer
react-native link react-native-fs

After that, you can go to yourProject/android/settings.gradle and verify if all modules have been added. It may look like:

include ':module-name'
project(':module-name').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, 
'../node_modules/module-name/android')

You may also go to yourProject/android/app/build.gradle to check if the modules are present on the dependencies:

dependencies {
    compile project(':module-name')
}
