title: Accessing host loopback interface from device?
body: <p>I've been so far running my app exclusively in the emulator. I want to try it out on a real device. My app connects to a web service running on the localhost itself using the host loopback IP of '10.0.2.2'.</p>
  
  <p>I have got the application deployed on my phone, but I don't know how to access a url like:
  "http://10.0.2.2/xyz/controller/AppController.php" when the application is on the phone. </p>
  
  <p>Basically, I want my phone to connect to the web server running on my machine. My machine is a dev machine and doesn't have a static ip. Is it possible?</p>
  
  <p>I understand I can deploy my web app on a real server with static ip and use that in my code. </p>
