React native Expo app -- how to serve on IP, not localhost?

Question

This is a new problem for me after rebuilding my development machine. When I launch my CRNA app, it's served at exp://localhost:19000 Obviously, neither my phone nor my emulator can find the app at that address, so how do I make it serve the app on my IP?

I've tried setting the REACT_NATIVE_PACKAGER_HOSTNAME env variable to no avail.

Found a solution:

npm i -g exp
exp start --dev --lan

you can read the full DOC from expo and use exp start --dev --lan .

but you can install Expo XDE (windows/macOs) and select lan in host setting!
