Hey bpereto, thank you for reaching out!

I just tested this (even using paperless.app.internal as hostname) and it worked as expected.
Is the Paperless web UI really accessible from that machine at https://paperless.app.internal?

If you have to append a port like :8080, you will also have to specify that port in Paperparrot. For local https to work, your Mac has to trust the root certificate used to sign the certificate your paperless server is using.

Marcel in the Paperparrot Discord also noted that apparently some flags have to be set when generating a self signed certificate for them to be trusted by iOS (the same likely applies to macOS):

# Used for extensions to the self-signed cert OpenSSL is going to generate for us
x509_extensions = x509_extensions

[x509_extensions]
basicConstraints = CA:true
keyUsage = digitalSignature
extendedKeyUsage = serverAuth
subjectKeyIdentifier = hash
