John, As Jeremy says, use the special address 0.0.0.0 in launching tiddlywiki and then you can access the Wiki at the devices IP address on your local network. Do keep in mind that the IP address is usually obtained by using a DHCP server on the local network to issue the address. If your local router does not have a static address assigned to your device (Set using the devices MAC address) then the phone could get issued with different IP Addresses, and if you connect to a different network or router (Wifi) your mobile device may get another IP Address.
I have not confirmed it, but it makes sense, that if the server is run and starts being available on one IP Address, then the Devices IP Address changes then you may loose access, in which case you may need to reload the tiddlywiki server on 0.0.0.0 again to "bind" to the new address.
