Mobile app cannot reach server
Hello there,
Thank you for your support.
I have a recent issue where mobile apps cannot reach server.
- App is running on TrueNAS scale (
1.7.42
)
- I had issues syncing for some time (aka happening before current version)
- Both mobile apps and server run on same version (v1.132.3
)
- Using web app on mobile and desktop works fine
- /api/server/ping
returns expected { "res": "pong" }
in browser (mobile and desktop)
- Error is same between iOS and Android (Android was fresh install, so no cache)
App was working fine since install (2-3 months ago), and did not do any changes past updates via TrueNAS catalog.

looks like something has changed in your networking setup so that the mobile app cannot reach the server
Hello @Alex Tran,
Yes I tried that and it works just fine from the browser. This is what I meant by “using web app on mobile and desktop works fine”.
can you verify the mobile app version?
It is v1.132.3, but I had sync issues before. Only from this version I tried to logout and login again to see if it would fix it. And ended up not being able to reach the server at all
Can you try restart the phone?
It works after reboot.
Didn’t think of that as it was working in browser…
Do you see any reasons that could explain how the issue I had got solved by reboot?
I will close the ticket as issue is solved. But it would be nice to know why it happened.
Thank you Alex for your help 🙏
