Full description

Your hosted files stay on your device, and the app is designed for fast setup, simple controls, and practical security features. Whether you are testing a portfolio, previewing a static site, showing a client demo on Wi‑Fi, or running a lightweight local web server from your phone, PocketHost gives you a clean and reliable mobile hosting experience.

What's new

What’s new HTML or React — pick the site type on the Server tab. Each saved project remembers it. React / SPA routing — routes like /about keep working after refresh. Missing JS/CSS files still show as 404. Built-in React demo — load it, start the server, then open /about to confirm routing. Smarter imports — a dist, build, or out folder is detected as a React app when possible.
