iOS app not working remotely with wireguard (wg-easy)

I'm able to access my home server using wg-easy, including the channels dvr website. However when I open up the Channels app it doesn't connect. I'm not sure what to do about that, any ideas?

This is my docker compose file for wg-easy:

services:
  wg-easy:
    image: ghcr.io / wg-easy / wg-easy
    container_name: wg-easy
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      - WG_HOST=XXXXXX.XXXXX.XXX
      - AllowedIPs = 0.0.0.0/0, ::/0, 192.168.1.0/24
    volumes:
      - /opt/AppData/Config/WG-Easy:/etc/wireguard
    ports:
      - 51820:51820/udp
      - 51821:51821/tcp
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
      - SYS_MODULE
    sysctls:
      - net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
      - net.ipv4.conf.all.src_valid_mark=1

Did you click Connect > At Home and enter the wg IP?

What happens when you try to connect?

I’m not exactly sure what IP I should enter. In the WG UI on my server it shows that my phone is connected to 10.8.0.2. I tried entering that and 10.8.0.1 in addition to the address that it’s hosted at on my lan, 192.168.0.168.

It says error Channels DVR server not found at XXXXX, whatever IP address I tried.

you need a wireguard IP that's assigned to your channels server

if you're not a wireguard expert then I would recommend you use Tailscale
