192.168.x.x:1500

So I have a small local server running a website. It’s not public facing at all, has a static IP address on my WiFi LAN and can be accessed by any Linux machine. I can’t see it on any iPhone or Android device though

I’ve looked up tutorials on line, ensured my firewalls allow local sharing on the WiFi, double checked I can even ping the server successfully with nmap on Android

Any tips?

::edit:: typo in post, not when searching for IP on LAN

    Have you tried different browsers? You should also enter the full URL sometimes they’re a bit stupid nowadays. So http://192.168.x.x:1500/

    Maybe the browsers bring their own VPN. Some process all traffic to make it more “mobile friendly”. Or they have some other kind of proxy.
