Why can't I see my react-app through local network?

I want to see my react app in my local network, but I can't. When I run npm start to start the local host and see my react app, it gives me two URLs. One for my current device and the other for the local network. When I open the local network URL on my phone, I just see that the page is loading. It doesn't give me any errors. I've ensured that my IP address is correct. Previously I was able to see the apps through local network, so not sure if I'm missing something trivial.

  2. Firewall & network protection (search it and open it) -> Private Network -> Microsoft Defender Firewall turn off
