Local access with Nabu Casa cloud, gives SSL error

Mobile Apps Home Assistant Companion for Android
1

I am struggling to configure the Android Companion App for local LAN access with Nabu Casa cloud. The local URL (https://homeassistant.local:8123) works fine on a PC and even on an Android browser, but not with the HA App. The App functions well with the Nabu Casa external URL as long as internet access is enabled, but when the internet is down, I cannot access HA using the App. I have entered the correct local URL in the App settings, and when I add my local Wi-Fi SSID to enable the local access setting, I receive an SSL error when trying to connect. What am I missing?

I have found plenty of advice on how to resolve local access issues with other remote connection methods, but not with the Nabu Casa cloud. I am not sure if any of that advice applies to my case too.

Do you have your internal_url in the configuration.yaml file?

homeassistant:
  name: HomeAssistant
  external_url: !secret external_url
  internal_url: "http://home.local:8123"

Under normal circumstances, the local url is not https when using nabu casa. Try http.

That was it. Have to use http for the local connection instead of https. Thanks.
