Android Configuration

For caching to work properly on Android, you need to add the following permissions to your AndroidManifest.xml file:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>

Also, ensure your application has the following configuration set:

<application
    android:networkSecurityConfig="@xml/network_security_config"
    ...
    >

And create a network security configuration file at android/app/src/main/res/xml/network_security_config.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<network-security-config>
  <base-config cleartextTrafficPermitted="true">
    <trust-anchors>
      <certificates src="system" />
    </trust-anchors>
  </base-config>

  <domain-config cleartextTrafficPermitted="true">
    <domain includeSubdomains="true">localhost</domain>
    <domain includeSubdomains="true">127.0.0.1</domain>
  </domain-config>
</network-security-config>
