Hi, welcome to dev.to :)
Seems to be a problem with DNS resolution about the hostname/domain. Double check if there is a misspelling or something relate with it. Some cases you need a proxy connection or to connect to other network to do request to a private resource/domain.
I don't know about programming in Android, but the problem "is universal"
I did a test with a simple call to an api which returns true or false and if I launch the api in the browser "resettami-apex/api/test" it works while from the app it always gives me an error
mmm.... if resettami-apex is mapped to localhost (127.0.0.1) or your docker.internal.host (ie: 172.0.0.1), the app can't find the address because is defined for your computer and not for the phone. Sometimes, when you are developing an app in your setup, you may need to access it by your IP address (ie: 192.168.0.2) and expose your API using your IP address.
