3 years ago The WKWebViewOnly flag is only configurable in cordova-ios@5.1.1.
In cordova-ios@6 the UIWebView has been completely removed and thus default webview is the WKWebView, effectively hard-coding WKWebViewOnly flag to true.
As far as the Apache codebase goes, you'll need to have the following:
cordova-ios@6
- Use the latest version of
cordova-ios - If cordova-plugin-wkwebview-engine is installed, uninstall it.
- If you use inappbrowser plugin, update to
4.0.0
If for some reason you cannot yet upgrade to cordova-ios@6, then read further.
cordova-ios@5
- Be on
cordova-ios@5.1.1 - Have
WKWebViewOnlypreference enabled - Have a WKWebView plugin installed such as this one.
- If you use the inappbrowser plugin, version
3.2.0or later will respect theWKWebViewOnlyflag.
Note on other plugins
It is possible that other third-party plugins may also include references of the UIWebView leading to app store rejection. This isn't an exhaustive list but some known plugins are:
- social media plugins
- google maps plugin
- firebase plugins
These plugins if your app uses them will also need to be updated.
I invite you to our slack for further assistance.
Hi, Is this issue resolved in 6.11 ? https://cordova.apache.org/howto/2020/03/18/wkwebviewonly.html
In your blog, your team mentioned that in feature everything will be replaced with WKWebView. Is 6.1.1 is candidate release for that ? Or should I still follow these instructions mentioned in your blog https://cordova.apache.org/howto/2020/03/18/wkwebviewonly.html
