How to access HA from mobile phone within same wifi

Configuration
1

I have HA container installed in my macOS. Accessing it from Mac itself is ok. But it’s not accessible when I try connect using mac ip address from my phone which connects to the same WiFi. Anything else needs to be setup?

thanks

Don’t have a mac myself, but i would guess you might have to open up port 8123 in the firewall

And insure the major portion of your LAN’s IP address range is available in configuration.yaml as a trusted source.

homeassistant:
  # how to authenticate for login to Home Assistant
  auth_providers:
   - type: homeassistant
   - type: trusted_networks
     trusted_networks:
     - 127.0.0.1
     - 172.30.32.0/24
     - 192.168.1.0/24

Trusting your LAN is NOT required for accessing your home assistant instance

@flamingm0e is correct. My suggestion was intended to remove another possible obstruction, not grant carte blanche to the LAN, which is what it does. :frowning:

Thanks guys! Did nothing and it is working now. Not sure why at that time I got timeout from my phone.
