Can't connect to runeaudio.local from Android phone or table

[jss2]

EDIT: after another day of tinkering, trying things, and searching around, I tried to connect to http://runeaudio/ from my phone (without the .local), and it works fine. Strange, but I'm glad I figured it out.


I apologize if this has been asked before, but I've searched the forums here and googled a few things, and I can't figure it out.

A few days ago, I installed RuneAudio on my Raspberry Pi 2. My library currently consists of one Samba share (from my Ubuntu server, running Ubuntu 15.10), and a also a USB flash drive plugged right into the Raspberry Pi 2.

Everything works great, and I am able to connect to runeaudio.local from Firefox on my laptop (my laptop is also running Ubuntu 15.10, same as my Ubuntu server). The Raspberry Pi 2 is connected via ethernet cable, and my laptop is on wifi.

But I can't connect to runeaudio.local from my phone or tablet. My phone is a Nexus 5X, running the stock images from google (Android 6.0.1), and I've tried from both Chrome and Firefox. Obviously, my phone is connected to my home wifi. But it's a no go. Please see the screenshots below. I also tried to connect to runeaudio.local from my Nexus 7 (2012) tablet (using the Android Chrome browser), and I have the same problem there.

It's probably something very simple that I'm missing, but any help that you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'd also like to know that answer to this, u believe it a chrome for mobile problem.
I just work around it by putting in the IP address in directly and then creating a webapp from the page from chrome.

Find the IP of your Runeaudio device and enter that instead. It'll work. Works for me.
