Hi,
I installed IP Webcam in my Android phone (Samsung Galaxy S7). Thereafter I added the following in my configuration.yaml file:
android_ip_webcam:
- host: 192.168.1.104
port: 8080
When I restarted HA, I see a section called IP Webcam but there is nothing inside it, even when I click to expand it.
I am able to look into the video from my browser though.
Is there something that I am missing?

Strangely enough, I have just been looking at setting this up with an old camera as well. I managed to get a camera visible in a new tab with this
group:
Cameras:
view: yes
entities:
- camera.fame
where fame
is the name of my android_ip_webcam
Where did you define the host (fame) in configuration.yaml?
I get the following as error in the logs:
ERROR (MainThread) [pydroid_ipcam] Failed to communicate with IP Webcam: Cannot connect to host <IPcam address>:8080 ssl:None [Operation timed out]

android_ip_webcam:
- host: 192.168.0.5
port: 8080
name: fame
This could be any number of problems. Check the IP address is the same and you can connect from your browser using this IP address to start with.
