TunnelMint provides port forwarding for local HTTP servers running on your Android device. Create a temporary public HTTPS URL to access a local website, test an API, receive test webhooks, or share a development demo across devices and networks.

Instead of opening a port on your Wi-Fi router, TunnelMint creates an HTTP tunnel using Cloudflare Quick Tunnels. Requests to the public URL are forwarded to 127.0.0.1 on the local HTTP port you select.

WHAT YOU CAN FORWARD

Forward a local HTTP service listening on the same Android device, such as a development web server, web dashboard, API, or webhook endpoint. Enter its port, such as 3000, 5000, 8000, or 8080, and start the tunnel.

TunnelMint does not start a web server or automatically forward every open port. Your HTTP server must already be running and reachable at 127.0.0.1 on the selected port.

HOW TO USE

1. Start an HTTP server on your Android device.
2. Add the local port where your server is listening.
3. Start the tunnel to generate a public HTTPS URL.
4. Copy or open the URL to test your service, or share it with people you trust.
5. Stop the tunnel when you finish.

KEY FEATURES

- Create temporary public HTTPS URLs for local HTTP ports
- Add and manage multiple localhost ports
- Start or stop each tunnel separately
- Start or stop all configured tunnels together
- Copy and open generated URLs with one tap
- View connection, error, and active-port status
- Keep tunnels running with an Android foreground service
- Stop all active tunnels from the notification
- No root access or router configuration required
- No app sign-in, Cloudflare account, or custom domain required

BUILT FOR DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING

- Expose localhost to the internet
- Preview local websites from another device or network
- Test APIs through a public HTTPS endpoint
- Receive test webhooks on a local HTTP server
- Share temporary web app and dashboard demos
- Show a development server to teammates or clients

PORT FORWARDING SCOPE

TunnelMint forwards HTTP requests through a public HTTPS tunnel. It does not configure your router, create router port-forwarding rules, or open inbound ports on your Wi-Fi network.

It does not provide general TCP or UDP forwarding, SSH tunneling, a VPN, a fixed domain, permanent hosting, or built-in authentication. Services on a PC or another device on your network are not supported; the HTTP server must run on the same Android device.

REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITATIONS

An internet connection and a running local HTTP server are required. The app and its foreground service must remain active while a tunnel is running.

Public URLs are random and temporary. A new URL may be assigned after reconnecting. Cloudflare Quick Tunnels are intended for testing and development, not permanent production hosting, and do not provide guaranteed availability.

SECURITY

Anyone with your public URL may be able to access the service behind it. Protect sensitive services with suitable authentication. Do not expose private files, credentials, or unprotected administration panels. Share URLs carefully and stop tunnels when testing is complete.
