Hi, Does the WebViewGold supported on Android TV ?
Hi again, State-Theatre! Thanks for your question!
WebViewGold for Android is primarily designed and optimized for regular Android smartphones and tablets. While technically it might run on some Android TV devices (since they’re based on Android), full compatibility with Android TV is not officially supported or guaranteed.
That means features like remote control navigation, proper scaling, or behavior in a leanback environment might not work as expected out of the box.
If you’re targeting Android TV specifically, we’d recommend looking into dedicated Android TV development practices (e.g., using Leanback library or Jetpack TV components) for the best experience. We are happy to help here, too. And let us know if you’d like help with a concrete setup or idea!
Thank you very much for your prompt response. I would like you to help us with a concrete setup and kindly advise a payable extra fee to get it done properly. Thanks (-:
Thanks! We might be able to help you, depending your requirements. Please email us to codecanyon-comments@onlineappcreator.com and we are happy to discuss all options with you. Thanks again!

What library do you use to read barcodes? Is it native? Is it used with a JavaScript library? Do you have any documentation to evaluate if my website is compatible?
Hello, diegonella! Thanks a lot for your comment and your interest in WebViewGold! Yes, the barcode scanner of WebViewGold works with virtually any website, and you can use a barcode trigger link to activate the scanner. The scanned result can then be injected into your JavaScript code, allowing full interaction with your web app. 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!
Hello! Is it possible to insert an ad in the Admob footer banner and interstitial?
Hello, wagnervrocha! Thanks a lot for your comment and your interest in WebViewGold! Yes, absolutely —you can combine them and it’s easy to configure them in the app template file. Just paste your AdMob App ID and ad unit IDs (for banner and interstitial) in the respective fields. If you need help setting them up or want to customize when interstitial ads show (e.g. after a number of clicks or page loads), let me know — happy to guide you! Any questions left?

Is the sms OTP authentication api available?
Hello again, dhruvindia! Thanks so much for your comment! WebViewGold for Android doesn’t include a dedicated SMS OTP (One-Time Password) authentication API. However, you can use any third-party SMS OTP service (like Firebase Authentication, Twilio, Nexmo, etc.) in your web app, and it in many setups works just fine inside the WebViewGold wrapper – as long as it’s web-based and doesn’t rely on native Android permissions that aren’t granted automatically. If your OTP process requires auto-detection of SMS (e.g., via SMS Retriever API), it might need additional native code implementation. Do you mean that? Or any other questions left? Feel free to ask! Thanks for being a part of the WebViewGold community! Best wishes, and have a fantastic weekend ahead!
Hi, can you please better explain latest update changelog? Specifically - Improved Status Update API - More Deeplinking Scheme Options Thanks
Hello, paperello! Thanks so much for your comment! Sure: Status Update API is just for entering your email and getting notified about app status related to your WebViewGold version in the future, this will be a new extended service (e.g., critical bugs, ..) And the deeplinking allows now for example.org and example:// scheme. Any questions left? Feel free to ask! Thanks for being a part of the WebViewGold community! Best wishes, and have a fantastic day!
I’ve been struggling with managing external links, I set EXTERNAL_LINK_HANDLING_OPTIONS = 2, SPECIAL_LINK_HANDLING_OPTIONS = 0, BROWSER_WHITELIST {maps.google.com, www.google.com, google.com} and NEVER_OPEN_IN_INAPP_TAB whit same domains of browser_whitelist and all my url’s keep opening in inapp tab, the url is like this: https://maps.google.com/maps?q=22.768866,-103.568085&t=m and I can’t figured out what I’m doing wrong
Another problem, the app shows in fullscreen and transparent status bar, it’s overlaping with my buttons
Hello, th3zeta! Thanks so much for your comment. Please mail a Config.java example (or even better the whole app source code) to senior-tech-support@onlineappcreator.com
– our development team is highly dedicated to helping you. The app source code will be too big to be an attachment, so please upload .zip on https://www.webviewgold.com/support-file-upload OR use a hosting provider like Dropbox and include a shared link in your mail. Moreover, please quote your CodeCanyon comment so that the team can relate to this issue here. Thanks for being a part of the WebViewGold community! Best wishes, and have a fantastic day!
Thank you, I’ve already send the email as “Fullscreen and Google Maps Links problem” with the code. Thank you for your response.
Thx!
Hi, is there any update of the problem? I tryed the last version of March and still the same
Is this affecting only Google Maps links or all links?
Just Google Maps links
Happy Monday! Got it. Please mail your app source code to codecanyon-comments@onlineappcreator.com (different department email than last time!).

I had already sent it 2 weeks ago, on March 24th, as “Fullscreen and Google Maps Links problem”
I re-assigned ticket #025188 to correct department, you will receive an answer within the next 30 minutes, thanks!
Thank you. The problem with google maps links was solved, now just trying to fix the “fullscreen and transparent status bar” problem, because all top buttons are behind the status bar and I can’t press them
Thx, you can reply to the ticket itself – we sent you a reply regarding this one
How can I update my app with the new webview files? I received an email notification that “Update available for ‘WebViewGold for Android’”.
Hello, Neurobinary! Thanks so much for your comment! As WebViewGold is an app template and not a software, it’s a bit tricky to upgrade. We recommend only to upgrade if you need one of the new features provided in a new version and to skip updates not required for your app (changelog for iOS: https://www.webviewgold.com/changelog/iOS/ & changelog for Android: https://www.webviewgold.com/changelog/android/). The easiest option to upgrade WebViewGold on iOS is to replace the Config.swift file with the old one. On Android, you can replace Config.java and MainActivity.java file parts. While replacing, make sure that there are some new variables maybe that has to be filled out/configured. Moreover, please copy over the icons and string/color files of Android. You can also use Git for comparing the changes made. Make sure to use the same bundle ID / package name and a higher version number than the previous version. You can also consider using GitHub, GitLab, or any other version management tool.

Adding the respective SDKs, is it possible to use Admob as a mediator for other networks?
You can modify the source code, yes
Can I monetize applications created in WebViewGold, for example, with Google Admob?

Pre-purchase, Hello, i hope my comment finds you well, i want to track Facebook ad installs and in-app events. Since Facebook Pixel doesn’t work natively in apps, how can I properly integrate the Facebook SDK to measure installs and user actions? Also, do I need to handle deep linking separately for tracking conversions from Facebook ads! can i have all that on WebViewGold?
Hello, fatineidressi! Thanks a lot for your comment and your interest in WebViewGold! You mean web tracking? If so, you can integrate in website itself to also enable tracking in app (like a browser). Any questions left?

Hello, we tested several webviews and encountered a problem. Finally saw your template. Before purchasing, I would like to confirm a few questions with you: 1. After I generate the apk and install it on the phone, do I need to set Google login permissions for the application separately (currently WP uses the Super Socializer plug-in, and I hope it can directly use the Google login permissions of the web version).
2. My website uses the target=”_blank” attribute, but when I use other webviews, I can’t open a new window in the app. I was wondering if your app can do this?
Please help confirm the problem. Thanks
Hello, matt908kimo! Thanks a lot for your comment and your interest in WebViewGold! We have a Social Login helper, and we also support target=”_blank” pop-ups, yes! Any questions left?

I reinstalled and now the phone device ID is different. I thought that was suppose to be the same unless the user resets the phone?
Hey again, tommyinnn! UUID is based on Secure.ANDROID_ID and you’re correct that Secure.ANDROID_ID is typically stable unless the device is factory reset. However, there are a few cases where ANDROID_ID can change:
1. Factory Reset – If the device was factory reset, ANDROID_ID will be regenerated.
2. Different User Profiles – If your app is installed under a different user profile (such as a work profile), it may return a different ANDROID_ID for that profile.
3. Upgrading or Changing ROMs – If you installed a custom ROM or an OS update, it may reset the ANDROID_ID.
4. App Scoped vs Global Behavior (Android 8.0 and Later) – On Android 8.0 (API level 26) and later, ANDROID_ID is scoped per app signing key and per user. If you signed your app differently (e.g., debug vs. release builds), you may see a different ID.
5. Work Profile / Secondary Users – If you are using a work profile or secondary user, ANDROID_ID will be different for each user.
6. Google Play Protect Reset – In rare cases, Play Protect can reset ANDROID_ID due to security policies.
Happy Monday!
o ok I see perhaps I was using a different profile not really sure how that happened I had been testing for a while that’s the first time it changed on me. It’s gonna cause a lot of unused rows in my DB. I also use that device ID as the unique id for DB and to store the rewards points as well as user data.
I haven’t found any API from Google Play where I can use to detect when the user uninstalls. Do you know of another solution?
Any chance of working a more permanent id on the device in future versions?
Thanks again the project is working out great planning on getting at least another license to replace older web view apps I have
Happy to hear! Detecting app uninstalls on Android can be tricky since there is no direct API that notifies your server when a user uninstalls an app. However, here are some common alternative approaches like a Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) with App Server Ping: If a device token becomes invalid (e.g., when sending a push notification), it often indicates that the app has been uninstalled. And no, Google has removed access to persistent device identifiers (like IMEI, Serial Number) in newer Android versions for privacy reasons. Happy Wednesday!
Please , any demo ?

WebViewGold looks like a great solution for converting websites into Android apps without coding! Has anyone tried it for complex web apps with heavy integrations? Also, I’ve been exploring some projects related to GCC, and it’s interesting how different frameworks handle web-to-app conversions. Would love to hear your thoughts
Hello, hamziiturner! Thanks a lot for your comment and your interest in WebViewGold! Some clarifications: Think about your app like a full-screen browser. Everything will work and look like your web app/website. All the changes you have made on your website will be applied to your iOS & Android apps immediately. So if your website works in Chrome on Android, it will work with WebViewGold. Here you go for examples: https://www.webviewgold.com/#examples Any questions left?

href=”displayrewardedad://” Display Rewarded Advertisement sends users to my websites homepage instead of an ad. I verified I have the correct values in the strings.xml file for Admob
public static boolean ENABLE_REWARDED_ADS = true; public static boolean USE_REWARDED_ADS_WHERE_POSSIBLE = false;
This part used to work not sure what happened can you advise? thanks
I guess every call I try to make to API sends users to homepage
takescreenshot:// qrcode:// etc
Hey again, tommyinnn – nice to hear from you again! This should not happen, how do you link to this? Using window.location JavaScript? Happy weekend and thanks!
I use < a h e r f =”displayrewardedad://” I can’t paste the entire code here is gets striped but it’s what you have in your DOCS Every single API call redirects to website not just the rewarded ads
I think I found problem, I had been using older config.java files to upgrade but I guess there was some conflict
Finally got it all 100% everything is working great I set up a simple ajax call to update my DB with the rewards, new app is live on Google Play!
Thanks!
Thanks & happy to hear!
Hello Team, While setting the App to refresh its content from sleep/background, the ads keeps on loading, like after an ad ends another ad loads automatically and the app cannot be used, is their a solution to this because on ios it works well but on Android it fails yet its such a nice feature! Help Me.

In the new version of Android, the application fills the screen so that it is stacked with the system bar at the top and stacked with the navigation bar at the bottom, how do I solve this problem?
Hello, ahfato! Thanks so much for your comment! Do you use splash screen size 100% in Config.java? Which Android version you use on which device? Any questions left? Feel free to ask! Thanks for being a part of the WebViewGold community! Best wishes, and have a fantastic day!
It seems that you need to immediately fix the problems that arise when the application is installed on Android 15

Hi team, can you please explain what you mean with “Improved In-App Purchase/Subscription API” in latest update? In the previous version unfortunately in-app subscription expiration url was never called after the subscription expired. Have you managed to solve this? Thanks
Hello, paperello! Thanks so much for your comment! WebViewGold now also allows you to handle In-App Purchase or Subscription data from server-side. After a successful transaction, the following JavaScript variables are created and injected into the webpage by WebViewGold:
1. planID: Contains the Product ID
2. transactionIdentifier: Contains the unique transaction ID
3. subreceipts: Contains unique receipt IDs for the user’s subscriptions
These variables can be accessed directly on the webpage for server-side storage and validation. Note that these variables are injected directly into the global window object after a transaction. Make sure your JavaScript is executed on the same page where the variables are accessible. Add appropriate fallback mechanisms if the variables are not available within the expected time frame (as shown in the timeout implementation). Sending these variables to your server allows you to validate subscriptions and transactions securely using Apple’s receipt validation API or your chosen method. More details and example JavaScript code can be found in the docs. Any questions left? Feel free to ask! Thanks for being a part of the WebViewGold community! Best wishes, and have a fantastic day!
