I'm trying to test our app in the mobile browser.




  • I started a wifi hotspot

  • Ran ionic serve on our project root

  • Connected to wifi on mobile device

  • On mobile browser went to http://localhost:8100


but I get a page not found. Shouldn't the ionic app load on browse if I connect to the wifi hotspot of the pc running the app server?

          The best way to do it:




          1. Make Personal Hotspot from your mobile Device to your Computer

          2. run ionic serve

          3. Read the the output this command throws. There you can see an External IP-Adress

          4. Open the Browser on your smartphone and use the Exernal IP-Adress + 8100 (Port)


          For example: http://192.168.32.12:8100

            localhost is your local address. If you want to access to the ionic app served by your PC from your mobile device browser, you should use the ip address of your PC instead of localhost, since localhost is the address of your mobile device.



            So just run an ifconfig (unix) or ipconfig (windows) on your terminal and access to the app with this address from your mobile device : http://IP_OF_YOUR_PC:8100



            This may not work depending on your firewall rules.
