Testing a backend API locally for Xamarin Forms using IP address

$

I have a simple asp.net core api backend project that serves a Todo API and a xamarin forms app that consumes it. When I run the backend API, the project runs on IIS Express on localhost:44374. Now for purposes of testing my android or ios app, i can't use localhost as my endpoint, I think i need to specify the actual ip address like so: 192.168.1.72:44374.

That doesn't work directly, and its supposedly an issue with IIS Express bindings. I have searched high and low on Stackoverflow and other places for a solution, but haven't really been able to find one. I am assuming someone here has had the same issue.

What is the suggested workaround?
