    You can’t reach localhost (127.0.0.1) from your phone, it works on chrome because the browser is running on the same machine as the server.

    Use the local IP of your machine (e.g. 192.168.x.x) and make sure the phone/emulator is connected to the same network/wifi.

    If you are running your app on a real device and using localhost in Flask, that is most likely the problem. You cannot access your PC localhost directly on your mobile.

    If you are connected to your phone via a USB cable, then you can use the Google Chrome port forwarding option.

    Type chrome://inspect in the chrome search bar and select the port forwarding option.

    Then set the port and IP address. In your case, do as follows

    Press done, now you can use localhost in your phone.
