Description of the app's functionality

everything seems to work fine.

Are there any extra notes you think users should know about?

"paytm bank" feature doesn't work without google play because it uses google's location api. (device need to have a valid gps lock)

ADB logcat of the app if necessary

No response

I was unable to login into PayTM. It says Android System Webview is disabled on your device. Please enable the android system webview in Settings and reply to open the page. Without login, the app is not much useful.

I searched issues on this and GOS does not ship or has a way to enable it. If there is any workaround, please let me know. Or else, I will request to move it to “Not working” status.

It might just be looking for it, try installing it:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.webview

[avinal]

I did, but GOS doesn't show up Android System Webview in the Provider menu. So cannot switch to it. It seems PayTM is hard-coded to use Google's implementation.

Let's hope we can convince them to drop this requirement. Thanks for the heads-up, marking it as incompatible.

@avinal You can dismiss the "warning dialog" and app will work just fine.

@empratyush how do you login into your account then? The warning dialog was supposed to be the login screen.
