Im currently running into a issue, where everything on my app works 100% properly in the preview on a mobile device, but when downloaded and installed onto a android device the API’s do not work.

What is the screen name where you’re calling the API? What is the full API url that you’re using to call it? It will speed things up if you paste that here as text. Does that url work in a browser?

So im calling the API on the screen name login, and the API endpoint is located at ```  
[https://api.quidcoins.com/api/v1/account/profile/](https://api.quidcoins.com/api/v1/account/profile/)

```auto

```

I would need a user email address and password to be able to test the API call and troubleshoot anything. I also use an iPhone so if it’s not working on an Android phone, I may not be of much use.

Im not sure it is much of a issue of what phone you are using, I just thought I would include what devices I tested this on. I have direct messaged you login details that you can use to help solve this issue.

Thanks. How would I know if the API is working correctly? I’m seeing this when logging in on the web preview:

I apologize I forgot to put everything back where it belongs 🤣 . Everything is back to the way it was when I first made the post. I feel that it is worth noting that the web preview has never allowed me use WebAPI’s. It always tells me to use the Thunkable Live App. Which is where I am having the issue. Everything works fine on the Device Preview in the Thunkable Live app, however, when I download an APK is where the problem occurs.

I won’t be able to test it on an Android for you.

It’s important to note that project links that you share are snapshots of a single state of the project. So if you made changes, you’ll need to post a new link if you want people to be able to see those changes.
