Cordova build gives NETWORK ERROR when hitting Laravel backend on *.test domain

[sakon54321]

Hi, I recently upgraded my quasar and I noticed I couldn't reach my API on http://projectname.test/api/ even though I'd changed nothing in the backend. After a lot of debugging the backend I figured out actually the problem was with the frontend.

Since I could hit the endpoint in the Safari browser in the simulator I knew it wasn't a dns issue. I could also hit the api endpoint in the app when I used the IP: 127.0.0.1:8000. It just wouldn't work with the URL.

And after I added the following lines to the src-cordova/config.xml file it all started to work as it did before.

    <access origin="http://projectname.test" />
    <allow-navigation href="http://projectname.test/*" />

Not sure if this is something new that I needed to add to the quasar.config.js or if this is a bug with the build process. Can someone suggest how this needs to be handled or if it is indeed just a bug in the build process please.
