Apollo client / React native error using localhost

I have a react native app that works with Apollo client(grapqhl), the problem is that I have a production API and Apollo client works without any problem but if I change the uri in apollo configuration to localhost:8000/graphql, my IDE console thrown the following error:

[Unhandled promise rejection: Error: Network request failed]

I have been able to review some questions to similar problems but I have found two things:

  1. Questions to similar problems are really old and some things have changed, and more with the release of apollo 3
  2. The solutions they suggest have not worked such as changing the localhost to the IP of my machine.
  3. I'm running react native with expo, I have tried running the application in expo go and android studio without any good results.

Apollo client configuration

import { ApolloClient, InMemoryCache } from '@apollo/client';

const client = new ApolloClient({
  uri: 'http://localhost:8000/graphql/',
  cache: new InMemoryCache()
});

Environment information

"@apollo/client": "^3.3.11"
"react-native": "https://github.com/expo/react-native/archive/sdk-40.0.1.tar.gz"
"expo": "~40.0.0"

Hey I had similar issues. What I did was replaced local host with my development device ip address (eg. http://192.168.xx.xx:4000/graphql instead of http://localhost:4000/graphql). This was because I was using expo qr scan to run the app on my android device and there was no tunneling over wifi.

I think that localhost is not defined in your device (emulated or not) and you should use the IP address or the name of your server I had the same problem and solved it this way
