External link won't open

SIDDHARTH_GUPTA · June 27, 2021, 7:09pm

I use custom webview by @vknow360

A link (https://google.com/maps/...) used to open in Google maps from my app but from last few days it's not working when link is clicked nothing happens..
I haven't modified anything in app inventor not updated my app !!

A guess is the WebViewer doesn't know where you are at. You didn't share your code so can only guess.

perhaps no LocationSensor data available
perhaps no WIFI Are you connected to WIFI or network? The app requires the Internet,

The following code works to display a location in Mumbai in the regular WebView on an Android 8.1 but will not in the emulator. bombay
Will also work https://www.google.com/maps/@19.076,72.8777,15z with your PC/s browser.
