How can i open React App on android device in the same local network?

Question

I created an app using the create-React-App. When I start the app it shows You can now view the player in the browser.

Local: http://localhost:3000 On Your Network: http://192.168.1.37:3000

When I try to access this on my network from my android device (chrome for android) it shows ERR_ADDRESS_UNREACHABLE.

I cannot access the app from my network, from any device. I am using ubuntu 20.04.

Answer 1

Instead of prepending http , just use the ipV4 address (which you can find in your wifi properties in settings ) ie

192.168.1.37:3000

in your case and hit it in your android device while the server is running.
