Confirmed. It doesn’t seem to be a problem with webbrowser-app itself
though, because resolving a .local address works in webbrowser-app on my
desktop. More likely a missing bit in the DNS stack as pointed out by
Stuart.

Title:
  Web browser on phone cannot resolve *.local addresses

Status in Web Browser App:
  Triaged
Status in “webbrowser-app” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Viewing http://faith.local/ in the browser on the phone says it cannot
  be found (faith is the name of this machine). Resolving this address
  from an Ubuntu laptop works fine. Viewing http://<ip address>/ works
  fine. I suspect the phone is missing whichever bit in the DNS stack
  knows how to resolve zeroconf addresses.
