Hey there,  
I am able to access the node red dashboard from my computer, but I am not able to access it through my android phone even though it is connected to the same wifi network.  
It says "This site can't be reached"  
Can anyone help me out please??

Welcome to the forum @Jeevan

When you access it from your computer is the computer the same one that is running the node red server?

What address are you putting in the browser on the computer to access it?

When you access it from the phone you need to use the IP address of the computer running node red.

Thanks for the reply Colin.  
The node red server is my raspberry Pi which is connected to my home wifi network.  
I am able to connect to the dashboard from my computer which is connected to the same wifi network. The address is [http://the-ipaddressofmy](http://the-ipaddressofmy) raspberry-pi:1880/ui  
But by typing the same address in the browser of my mobile(which is connected to the same wifi network), I am not able to connect to th dashboard?!

Use the IP of the raspberry pi and not the hostname.
