127.0.0.1 is actually the most local IP you can connect to, as it will always connect to the device you are on. ;) Can’t get any more local than that.

Sorry, not helping, I know.

You should be able to use either without any changes. If you have a problem connecting from another system then it’s likely a firewall issue.

Is your local IP a private, or public IP?

Does it start with 192, for example?

How are you determining your local IP?

Private like 10.0.0.*

What device are you trying to access it on? The same device?

Can you ping the tablet from the device running searx, or the device running searx from your tablet? Termux is a good app to test.

When a service is running on 127.0.0.1 it usually wants a web server software as proxy. https://searx.github.io/searx/admin/installation-nginx.html
