I am new to android development. I have a module where I need to connect to a webservice via an android application. I have the web services in my localhost.

My question is: How to access them from my android application?

Tutorials on web says how to access the live web services.

  • First, both your computer and android device need to be in the same network,
  • If you use windows, go to cmd and type ipconfig /all
  • Find your computer's ip address
  • Then you will be able to access your server's from its ip address.
  • You can also check your firewall configuration if steps above don't work
