Is this something like how ".local" is already a mDNS standard but OSX and android won't support it yet? (Unless they buy your app)

I can already access "myserverhost.local" from everything but android and OSX. Windows and Linux work fine automatically.

Android supports it now.

Do you mean that this issue report can now be considered as resolved?

I'd love to update my notes if that's the case.

I don't know anything more than the docs I linked to.

Ok checked some info and, in summary:

Your linked article (the official source from Google) states "November 2021" [1], which by date would correspond to API Level 32 aka. Android 12.1.

Android 12.0 might also have the feature backported on some devices, according to some reports such as seen in the issue report for the feature [2].

Finally, the feature has apparently not been backported to Android 10 or 11, according to a blog post I found about this topic [3].

The FAQ admits that it is just configuring mDNS advertisements.

It’s been on osx since it saw called osx and not MacOS.
