I disagree with this, but it is possible with one of those Linux shell emulators for Android, I forget if I tried it on iOS, but I've managed to do it both via Python and Golang.


Without root access you're not going to be able to use port 80 or port 443 on Android.

I don't think iOS has the same restriction, but I can't find any documentation about it so I'm not sure.


Not sure what port I used and I wasnt trying to use my mobile IP either, probably just used 8080.


Why would you need root access for the most common posts on the internet?


Not to access them on other systems, but to listen on them.


That doesn't change my question.
