Test on another device

Open a local app on phones, tablets, and remote browsers.

Open a public HTTPS URL when you need to exercise a local app outside your development machine.

Open the app on another device

Start the app, then open a tunnel:

tt http 5173

Open the printed public URL on a phone, tablet, virtual machine, or remote browser.

Common checks you can run:

  • Responsive layout and touch interaction
  • Mobile browsers and WebViews
  • Camera, microphone, and device APIs that require a secure origin
  • Cross-browser differences without LAN setup

Avoid local-network setup

You do not need a local IP, mDNS hostname, or device trust configuration. The app must already listen on the chosen port.

When the app binds an interface other than localhost, pass --host:

tt http 3000 --host 127.0.0.1

Protect unfinished work with --password before you share the URL broadly.
