Remote mobile viewing is only available if you have opened a port in the firewall (security risk) or if you have setup a VPN server on your firewall and connect to that first with something like OpenVPN. Which way have you tried?

And to go with that, it's most likely that your server IP on your LAN is not routable so it would need a different external IP when accessing remotely.

lets assume
1)your external IP address of your home is 123.456.789.123
2)your blue iris IP is 192.168.1.100
3)and you blue iris is using port 80

Inside your home network you can access BI on 192.168.1.100:80 (80 is the normal http port, so isn't really required to enter it as 192.168.1.100 be the same thing)

as Matt mentioned its likely your ISP will block port 80 to your house..even if they didn't you probably would want to use it, so in your router, you need to forward another port(lets say port 99 for example) to 192.168.1.100:80. the end result would be if you went to 123.456.789.123:99 outside of your home network, it would be the same as 192.168.1.100:80 inside your network.

your config for the app in this example would be:

internal 192.168.1.100
external 123.456.789.123:99
