 3. Set `STUDIO_ACCESS_TOKEN` if Studio binds to a public host.
 4. Configure the gateway URL and token inside Studio.
 
+### Studio on LAN or Tailscale for other devices
+
+1. Start Studio with `HOST=0.0.0.0` (or a specific LAN/Tailscale host).
+2. Set `STUDIO_ACCESS_TOKEN` before exposing Studio beyond localhost.
+3. Open Claw3D from the LAN/Tailscale address instead of `localhost`.
+4. If you are connecting to a remote OpenClaw gateway, remember device approval is per browser/device. A new browser may still require:
