Hi @CodingEmil, thanks for opening the issue.
Let me just understand better the problem:
You are trying to connect from you android mobile to the server that host the service, but you cannot, right?
Did you entered a server URL like http://192.168....
(local) or something else?
What it's not clear to me is that you mention that you're trying to use the android app without success, while you can connect using the phone browser. But right now the project does not provide an android app, just a webapp. So it's now clear to me the difference between the Android App you're talking about and the phone browser.
Hi @MDeLuise,
I used the apk from the last release.
I did enter it like you're saying
http://10.0.30.222:8080
, that's what's working in the browser, but not in the apk.
I think you are one of the few, if not the first, using the APK instead of the web app. This is because I did not mention the APK anywhere, so nice find!
For now, I suggest using the web app instead of the APK, at least until I make an official announcement about it. The last release was the first to include the APK, and I uploaded it as part of my efforts to make the app available in the F-Droid store, so I'm conducting some preliminary tests with that file.
That said, really thanks for pointing out this issue. I believe I just have fixed it in PR #168. The next project release will include a working APK.
I see, excited to test it in the next release. I'll give you feedback!
I just saw your merge request over at F-Droids Gitlab... :)

Yes, the release on F-Droid seems to be almost ready. Right now, I'm just having some issues with the signing of the APK, but hopefully, I'll fix them soon π . That's why I suggested not using the APK file in the release yet β I'm still doing some tests by uploading and re-uploading the file.
This task has been completed and will be implemented in the next project release. Thank you for your contribution!

Hello @MDeLuise,
the issue still persists on 0.7.0. I did check the installed app version, to confirm it's 0.7.0.
I am supposed to use the 8080
port, right?
Works over browser.
Hi!
Thanks for testing the APK app and confirming the problem still persists. Yes, the default server URL is http://<local-ip>:8080
.
Could you please try using the APK app attached to the last release? The file is named app-release-test.apk
. You can download it directly from this link: app-release-test.apk.
Unfortunately, I cannot test the app on a real device right now, only on an emulator, and there everything works fine.
Thank you for your assistance in testing this.
Just tried it with the βnewβ APK. Sadly, I am not even able to install the app.
You're right, there was a problem with the file. I have re-uploaded it, and it should now be installable. Hopefully, this fixes the problem π . It's a bit of a trial and error process right now since everything works fine on the emulator.
The installation worked. Sadly the connection error still persists... Could it be a timeout problem? Going through VPN which is a bit slow (in Browser works tho)
Happy to help!
Happy to tell you, that the app is working now.
Hi,
Really happy to know that the problem is fixed! In the next project release, I'll incorporate the changes I made in the app-release-test.apk
file.
Unfortunately, the first F-Droid release (app version 0.7.0
) will not include these fixes, so it might not work properly. However, I will push a new release as soon as possible to address this on the F-Droid side as well.
Thank you so much for testing and providing updates. I will keep this GitHub issue monitored in the following days. If any new problems regards this arise, please feel free to add a comment here.
