I have a website for listening to music through YouTube. Can your code allow iOS apps to run in the background? Can they play YouTube videos in the background?
Hello, bobopachita! Thanks a lot for your comment and your interest in WebViewGold! This also depends on the website setup, and as far as I know (not an expert in this), YouTube blocks this sometimes, as background listening is part of YouTube Premium. Not sure about that. From our side, you can buy, try, and if it does not fit your needs, just ask for a refund within 7 days via Envato/CodeCanyon, and we will approve it. Any questions left? You can also schedule a video consultation call with us anytime using the support section of www.webviewgold.com 
There you can also register for one of our free workshops. Or feel free to ask by text reply! We would love to have you on board in the WebViewGold community! Best wishes, and have a fantastic day!
Hi, I have a fitness web app. I would like to be able to read the health data of iOS, so user complete a workout and we pull some data (calories, hearth rate, etc) to our webapp. Can this be done with your app?
Thanks

Issue with uselocalhtmlfolder = true and local-www limitations on iOS
According to the WebViewGold iOS documentation, local HTML usage is described as simply placing files inside the local-www folder and setting uselocalhtmlfolder = true in Config.swift.
However, in practice, this approach has undocumented and severe limitations on iOS: • local-www does not behave as a free filesystem root. • WKWebView only allows access to a very restricted subdirectory tree, implicitly defined by the internally used loadFileURL(_:allowingReadAccessTo:). • Assets (CSS, JS, images, audio) located outside specific “expected” subfolders silently fail to load, even though they are inside local-www. • No error is reported in the console when resources are blocked. • Complex projects (e.g. WebAR with MindAR, A-Frame, WebGL, WASM, audio, multiple nested asset folders) do not work reliably in file:// mode. • JavaScript may partially execute (e.g. camera starts via A-Frame), while custom JS logic fails silently.
These limitations are not documented, making the feature misleading for non-trivial local web projects. The current behavior makes uselocalhtmlfolder = true unsuitable for complex local web apps on iOS.

Hello, I think there is a problem with : var statusBarBackgroundColor = #colorLiteral(red: 0.06666666667, green: 0.06666666667, blue: 0.06666666667, alpha: 1) //Define a custom status bar background color
var darkModeStatusBarBackgroundColor = #colorLiteral(red: 0.06666666667, green: 0.06666666667, blue: 0.06666666667, alpha: 1) //Define a custom status bar background color while user is using iOS Dark Mode
var statusBarTextColor = “white” //Define the text color of the status bar (“white” or “black”); requires iOS 13 or higher
var darkModeStatusBarTextColor = “white” //Define the text color of the status bar (“white” or “black”) while user is using iOS Dark Mode; requires iOS 13 or higher; NOTE: choosing “black” deactivates dark mode in the app to prevent an illegible status bar // This is an example, and text is always black even if I Status Bar Style is Black. Thank you for your help.
I think I found it, View controller-based status bar appearance must be “No”.
But there is a problem with intersticial ads. When it close, the header stay white instead black background… When I refresh the page, the background become black. So problem with background instersticial…

Is it possible to track Facebook Ad campaigns? Is the Meta SDK for iOS setup already?
Thanks for the comment, BenClark Which extent of tracking do you mean? We used the Audience Network SDK for integration. Extended Tracking also probably requires a shown User Consent Dialog. Happy Wednesday and thanks!
So I want to track referrals from facebook ad campaigns. ChatGPT says I need the Facebook SDK and to import FacebookCore and FacebookEvents
Happy Wednesday
Thanks for the reply! This is not there as a default yet, no. For more options, feel free to also contact us via codecanyon-comments@onlineappcreator.com – thanks and happy weekend ahead!
Don’t worry, all installed, tested and working….. god bless chatGPT
Happy to hear!
it will support xcode26.1.1 ?
Yes, that should work, soturl Happy weekend ahead!
I’m having trouble running the project.
//WebView/WebViewController.swift:32:8 Unable to find module dependency: ‘Pushwoosh’ import Pushwoosh

I only want to run Firebase.
I’ve configured all the settings.
I’m using Version 15.4LTS.
I disabled it in the config file.

I rarely use a local HTML file, but I now need to support an online URL as the default for app, but also support loading the local HTML file on demand via a button click. Is this possible and if yes, how can I handle it? Thanks.
Hey winalot, thanks for the comment – maybe use Local HTML with an index.html that checks for connection and forwards to remote URL if online. Best regards!
Is it possible to support the Widget Extension in the 15.4LTS version?
Hello again, winalot! No, the LTS is explicitly for easier setup without these targets and avoid rejection issues, but we will improve the Non-LTS soon. Any questions left? Feel free to ask! Thanks for being a part of the WebViewGold community! Best wishes, and have a fantastic weekend!
Thanks for the reply, appreciate your support. Do you have a public roadmap available?
Not yet, but will add then @ webviewgold.com/changelog/ios
Is there a way to immediately close the app and return the user to their phone’s home screen?
Hey again, winalot! No, not in a standard App Store-compliant way.
Apple explicitly prohibits programmatically closing your own app to return the user to the home screen (“apps must not force quit themselves”). The only acceptable scenario is if the app crashes internally (not intentionally), or if the system itself kills it due to memory pressure, but you may not trigger that manually. If you want this as a custom gig anyway, we can do it for you in a quick way. All the best!
Hi I build a webapp with Lovable.dev . It’s possible use your product to convert to Ios app?

This has issues with iOS 26. The entire app window/screen shifts up and down like if it had a gap. This issues is only present on iOS 26. When the issue show up your entire bottom limit of the site shift up several pixels and back down depending on the direction of your scroll. The issue is also present on the new safari so afaik is a problem with the iOS 26 vkview framework. I tried EVERYTHING to force fix this issue but could not find a solution. Not with css, JS or even tweaking some of the swift code… This is a big issue
Hello, Mightyinks! Thanks so much for your comment. This maybe correlated to the web app viewport. Please mail a URL, a screenshot and your app source code to development-team@onlineappcreator.com

Hey moreedofficial, thanks – you cannot use this with Windows-only as Apple only allows building and uploading from Apple Mac devices, but there are some alternatives: MacInCloud.com or WebViewGold Cloud Builder (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzgCkydN9OM; paid extra) OR you can request a refund here. All the best and thanks!
Hello, is it possible to open an external link from onesignal push notification? Link can be opened in Safari, or within the app? Thanks.
Its possible, i found the answer from documentation thanks.
Thanks – happy to hear & you are always welcome
For the widget extension, can we pass any URL as long as it returns a SVG or PNG? For example, widget://https://example.org/image.php?user=30 (note the .php endpoint).
Hello again, winalot! Should work as long the PHP returns also correct Content headers. If you encounter problems, ping us Happy Friday, best wishes, and have a fantastic weekend ahead!
Could you please provide an image or video showing how the new Native Navigation Footer appears? Thanks!

Hello What is the solution? Failed Registering Parent Bundle Identifier in AppClip
-
- Parent app target: e.g.
com.yourco.yourapp - App Clip target: e.g.
com.yourco.yourapp.Clip(must be explicit; no wildcards)
- Parent app target: e.g.
- Create/verify IDs in Apple Developer portal
- Developer Portal → Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles → Identifiers
- Ensure the parent App ID exists and is on the correct Team
- Edit the parent App ID and enable App Clips (and Associated Domains, etc., as needed)
- Create a new App Clip identifier with bundle ID
com.yourco.yourapp.Clipand set Parent Application to your parent app ID
- Match Xcode to the portal
- In Xcode, select each target → Signing & Capabilities
- Team: correct org (not Personal Team)
- Bundle Identifier: exactly matches what you created in the portal
- Automatically manage signing ON, or download the matching provisioning profiles
- Clean & retry
- Product → Clean Build Folder, then quit/reopen Xcode and build again
Thanks and have a great day!
I don’t need App Clips Is it possible to delete it from target ?
I have a problem : Provisioning profile failed qualification Profile doesn’t match the entitlements file’s value for the application-identifier entitlement.
Hi sultan140402 — thanks for the follow-up!
1) Don’t need App Clips?
Yes, you can remove it. Two easy options:
- Easiest: Use the included v15.4 project (no App Clip; see “Which Version Should I Choose.pdf”).
-
Or remove in current project (maybe more complications):
- In Xcode → Targets, select the App Clip target → press Delete → Remove References.
- In the main app target → Signing & Capabilities, remove any App Clip–specific capabilities if present.
- Product → Clean Build Folder, then rebuild. Remove code reference errors.
2) “Provisioning profile failed qualification… application-identifier”
This means your profile’s App ID doesn’t exactly match your app’s bundle ID & team prefix.
Quick fix checklist:
-
Bundle IDs (explicit, unique):
- Main app: e.g.
com.yourco.yourapp - (If you removed the App Clip, you can ignore its ID.)
- Main app: e.g.
- Team: In Signing & Capabilities, make sure the Team is your company team (not Personal Team).
- Auto signing: Turn Automatically manage signing ON for Debug/Release. Let Xcode create/download the right profiles.
-
If you prefer manual signing:
- In Apple Developer → Identifiers, verify the App ID exactly matches your bundle ID.
- Enable needed capabilities there (Push, Associated Domains, etc.).
- Re-create the provisioning profile for that App ID and download it.
- In Xcode, select that exact profile for each build configuration.
-
Entitlements sanity check:
- In your .entitlements, the key
application-identifiershould resolve to$(AppIdentifierPrefix)$(CFBundleIdentifier). - Xcode sets this automatically when auto-signing; mismatches happen if the bundle ID or team doesn’t match the profile.
- In your .entitlements, the key
- Refresh local state: Product → Clean Build Folder; Quit & reopen Xcode. If needed, Xcode → Settings → Accounts → Download Manual Profiles.
Happy weekend ahead!
Can you explain the steps this ? Where do I add this?
In your .entitlements, the key application-identifier should resolve to $(AppIdentifierPrefix)$(CFBundleIdentifier).
Please Please help me
Thanks, you should have received a ticket creation confirmation mail & we will reply soon
I am still waiting for my problem to be fixed. I sent you ticket Please help me
Please check ticket reply, thanks
Is there a way to hide the background / make the background transparent behind the status bar? I would like my app to transparently be behind there versus a color status bar. Thanks!
Hello, theinterfacedesigner! Thanks so much for your comment! Yes, you can set transparentStatusBar to true in Config.swift. Any questions left? Feel free to ask! Thanks for being a part of the WebViewGold community! Best wishes, and have a fantastic day!
Thanks!!
Very much welcome!!
