Support Glitch: Open project test link to Internet level

Currently, every time I want to test app, I have to make sure to connect the same network. If I want to deploy app in Glitch, it would be impossible because Expo didn't have any ports to global internet even though Glitch does provide second-level domain.

you can already do this with tunnel connection

Brent Vatne

you can enable the "tunnel" connection type to do this, you don't have to be on the same network. this will leverage ngrok (https://ngrok.com/)

Brent Vatne: The tunnel seems unstable. Sometime it works, sometime doesn't. Usually error would look like this: Tunnel url not found it might not be ready yet expo

Brent Vatne

thichdungthu: we use a bundled https://ngrok.com/ binary to support tunneling. if this doesn't run properly on your machine, you could look into the documentation and try to understand why.

another option is to run

expo publish

and open the published version of the app, so you don't need to have the development server running.
