Homeassistant andoid app

Mobile Apps Home Assistant Companion for Android

Hello, I have recently configured duckdns & letsencrypt and start getting issues accessing homeassistant from my android app.

I cannot access duckdns url from my laptop if i am connected to my wifi as i think my router does not support nat loopback.

My android application (v2.5.0-full) is having similar issue does not pick duckdns url if on internal wifi but works when i am 3G. I even tried to configure my ‘Home Network Wifi SSID’ and internal connection URL which stars with ‘https’ but i am unable to get access to UI.

I f i use browser on my phone and access internal url it works fine.

Would you know what could be issue?

ANy help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Have you tried HTTP for internal ?

internal wont be https, only http because the duckdns cert is only valid for the external address

thanks for your replies, no it does not work on http inside network. It has to be https (for some reason).
I have copied my config files,

lets_encrypt:
  accept_terms: true
  certfile: fullchain.pem
  keyfile: privkey.pem
token: abcdef
domains:
  - mydomain.duckdns.org
aliases: []
seconds: 300

configuration.yaml

http:
  base_url: http://mydomain.duckdns.org:8123
  ssl_certificate: /ssl/fullchain.pem
  ssl_key: /ssl/privkey.pem

When you use the app internally you should just be using the local IP address, like http:\192.168.0.10:8123 or similar. Are you trying that?

yes my internal url is 192.168.68.124:8123 which was working fine before letsencrypt install.

After letsencrypt i can only use https://192.168.68.124:8123

I assume your router does not support NAT loopback? if it does just turn that on and let your router take care of the internal/external bit.
