InAppWebView-logo

A Flutter plugin that allows you to add an inline webview, to use an headless webview, and to open an in-app browser window.

Announcement #

All the configuration and info about Getting Started with this plugin and code examples will be moved from here to the new inappwebview.dev official website! I will create a new section there for better visualization and management.

Stay tuned!

API Reference #

See the online API Reference to get the full documentation.

Note that the API shown in this README.md file shows only a part of the documentation and, also, that conforms to the GitHub master branch only! So, here you could have methods, options, and events that aren't published/released yet! If you need a specific version, please change the GitHub branch of this repository to your version or use the online API Reference (recommended).

Also, check the example/integration_test/webview_flutter_test.dart file for code examples.

Requirements #

Dart sdk: ">=2.12.0-0 <3.0.0"
Flutter: ">=1.22.2"
Android: minSdkVersion 17 and add support for androidx (see AndroidX Migration to migrate an existing app)
iOS: --ios-language swift, Xcode version >= 12

IMPORTANT Note for Android and iOS #

If you're running an application and need to access the binary messenger before runApp() has been called (for example, during plugin initialization), then you need to explicitly call the WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized() first.

An example:

void main() {
  // it should be the first line in main method
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  // rest of your app code
  runApp(MyApp());
}

IMPORTANT Note for Android #

If you are starting a new fresh app, you need to create the Flutter App with flutter create --androidx -i swift to add support for androidx, otherwise it won't work (see AndroidX Migration to migrate an existing app).

During the build, if Android fails with Error: uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 16 cannot be smaller than version 17 declared in library, it means that you need to update the minSdkVersion of your android/app/build.gradle file to at least 17.

Also, you need to add <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/> in the android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml file in order to give minimum permission to perform network operations in your application.

If you flutter created your project prior to version 1.12, you need to make sure to update your project in order to use the new Java Embedding API! Take a look at the official Flutter wiki: Upgrading pre 1.12 Android projects. Also, you can refer to the #343 issue. Remember to add <meta-data> tag inside the <application> tag of your android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:

<meta-data
  android:name="flutterEmbedding"
  android:value="2" />

as mentioned in the 6th step of Full-Flutter app migration guide. Without this, the plugin will NOT work!!!

Because of Flutter AndroidX compatibility, the latest version that doesn't use AndroidX is 0.6.0.

Also, note that to use the InAppWebView widget on Android, it requires Android API 20+ (see AndroidView)
or Android API 19+ if you enable the useHybridComposition Android-specific option.

Support HTTP request: Starting with Android 9 (API level 28), cleartext support is disabled by default:

Check the official Network security configuration - "Opt out of cleartext traffic" section.
Also, check this StackOverflow issue answer: Cleartext HTTP traffic not permitted.

If you want to use the ChromeSafariBrowser class on Android 11+ you need to specify your app querying for android.support.customtabs.action.CustomTabsService in your AndroidManifest.xml (you can read more about it here: https://developers.google.com/web/android/custom-tabs/best-practices#applications_targeting_android_11_api_level_30_or_above).

Debugging Android WebViews

On Android, in order to enable/disable debugging WebViews using chrome://inspect on Chrome, you should use the AndroidInAppWebViewController.setWebContentsDebuggingEnabled(bool debuggingEnabled) static method.

For example, you could call it inside the main function:

Future main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  if (Platform.isAndroid) {
    await AndroidInAppWebViewController.setWebContentsDebuggingEnabled(true);
  }

  runApp(new MyApp());
}

Enable Material Components for Android

To use Material Components when the user interacts with input elements in the WebView, follow the steps described in the Enabling Material Components instructions.

IMPORTANT Note for iOS #

If you are starting a new fresh app, you need to create the Flutter App with flutter create --androidx -i swift (see flutter/flutter#13422 (comment)), otherwise, you will get this message:

=== BUILD TARGET flutter_inappwebview OF PROJECT Pods WITH CONFIGURATION Debug ===
The “Swift Language Version” (SWIFT_VERSION) build setting must be set to a supported value for targets which use Swift. Supported values are: 3.0, 4.0, 4.2, 5.0. This setting can be set in the build settings editor.

If you still have this problem, try to edit iOS Podfile like this (see #15):

target 'Runner' do
  use_frameworks!  # required by simple_permission
  ...
end

post_install do |installer|
  installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
    target.build_configurations.each do |config|
      config.build_settings['SWIFT_VERSION'] = '5.0'  # required by simple_permission
      config.build_settings['ENABLE_BITCODE'] = 'NO'
    end
  end
end

Instead, if you have already a non-swift project, you can check this issue to solve the problem: Friction adding swift plugin to objective-c project.

Support HTTP request: you need to disable Apple Transport Security (ATS) feature. There're two options:

Disable ATS for a specific domain only (Official wiki): (add following codes to your Info.plist file)

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
  <key>NSExceptionDomains</key>
  <dict>
    <key>www.yourserver.com</key>
    <dict>
      <!-- add this key to enable subdomains such as sub.yourserver.com -->
      <key>NSIncludesSubdomains</key>
      <true/>
      <!-- add this key to allow standard HTTP requests, thus negating the ATS -->
      <key>NSTemporaryExceptionAllowsInsecureHTTPLoads</key>
      <true/>
      <!-- add this key to specify the minimum TLS version to accept -->
      <key>NSTemporaryExceptionMinimumTLSVersion</key>
      <string>TLSv1.1</string>
    </dict>
  </dict>
</dict>

Completely disable ATS (Official wiki): (add following codes to your Info.plist file)

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
    <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key><true/>
</dict>

Other useful Info.plist properties are:

NSAllowsLocalNetworking: A Boolean value indicating whether to allow loading of local resources (Official wiki);
NSAllowsArbitraryLoadsInWebContent: A Boolean value indicating whether all App Transport Security restrictions are disabled for requests made from web views (Official wiki).

Debugging iOS WebViews

On iOS, debugging WebViews on Safari through developer tools is always enabled. There isn't a way to enable or disable it.

How to enable the usage of camera for HTML inputs such as `<input type="file" accept="image/*" capture>` #

In order to be able to use camera, for example, for taking images through <input type="file" accept="image/*" capture> HTML tag, you need to ask camera permission. To ask camera permission, you can simply use the permission_handler plugin!

Example:

import 'package:permission_handler/permission_handler.dart';

Future main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  await Permission.camera.request();

  runApp(MyApp());
}

On Android, you need to add some additional configurations. Add the following codes inside the <application> tag of your android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:

<provider
    android:name="com.pichillilorenzo.flutter_inappwebview.InAppWebViewFileProvider"
    android:authorities="${applicationId}.flutter_inappwebview.fileprovider"
    android:exported="false"
    android:grantUriPermissions="true">
    <meta-data
        android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
        android:resource="@xml/provider_paths" />
</provider>

Load a file inside `assets` folder #

To be able to load your local files (assets, js, css, etc.), you need to add them in the assets section of the pubspec.yaml file, otherwise they cannot be found!

Example of a pubspec.yaml file:

...

# The following section is specific to Flutter.
flutter:

  # The following line ensures that the Material Icons font is
  # included with your application, so that you can use the icons in
  # the material Icons class.
  uses-material-design: true

  assets:
    - assets/index.html
    - assets/css/
    - assets/images/

`InAppWebView` class #

Flutter Widget for adding an inline native WebView integrated into the flutter widget tree.

The plugin relies on Flutter's mechanism (in developers preview) for embedding Android and iOS native views: AndroidView and UiKitView. Known issues are tagged with the platform-views label in the Flutter official repo. Keyboard support within webviews is also experimental.

Note that on Android it requires Android API 20+ (see AndroidView) or Android API 19+ if you enable the useHybridComposition Android-specific option.

Use InAppWebViewController to control the WebView instance. Example:

import 'dart:async';
import 'dart:collection';
import 'dart:convert';
import 'dart:io';
import 'dart:typed_data';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_inappwebview/flutter_inappwebview.dart';
import 'package:url_launcher/url_launcher.dart';

Future main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  if (Platform.isAndroid) {
    await AndroidInAppWebViewController.setWebContentsDebuggingEnabled(true);
  }

  runApp(new MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _MyAppState createState() => new _MyAppState();
}

class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {

  final GlobalKey webViewKey = GlobalKey();

  InAppWebViewController? webViewController;
  InAppWebViewGroupOptions options = InAppWebViewGroupOptions(
      crossPlatform: InAppWebViewOptions(
        useShouldOverrideUrlLoading: true,
        mediaPlaybackRequiresUserGesture: false,
      ),
      android: AndroidInAppWebViewOptions(
        useHybridComposition: true,
      ),
      ios: IOSInAppWebViewOptions(
        allowsInlineMediaPlayback: true,
      ));

  late PullToRefreshController pullToRefreshController;
  String url = "";
  double progress = 0;
  final urlController = TextEditingController();

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();

    pullToRefreshController = PullToRefreshController(
      options: PullToRefreshOptions(
        color: Colors.blue,
      ),
      onRefresh: () async {
        if (Platform.isAndroid) {
          webViewController?.reload();
        } else if (Platform.isIOS) {
          webViewController?.loadUrl(
              urlRequest: URLRequest(url: await webViewController?.getUrl()));
        }
      },
    );

About the JavaScript handler

The Android implementation uses addJavascriptInterface. The iOS implementation uses addScriptMessageHandler

The JavaScript function that can be used to call the handler is window.flutter_inappwebview.callHandler(handlerName <String>, ...args), where args are rest parameters. The args will be stringified automatically using JSON.stringify(args) method and then they will be decoded on the Dart side.

In order to call window.flutter_inappwebview.callHandler(handlerName <String>, ...args) properly, you need to wait and listen the JavaScript event flutterInAppWebViewPlatformReady. This event will be dispatched as soon as the platform (Android or iOS) is ready to handle the callHandler method.

   window.addEventListener("flutterInAppWebViewPlatformReady", function(event) {
     console.log("ready");
   });

window.flutter_inappwebview.callHandler returns a JavaScript Promise that can be used to get the json result returned by JavaScriptHandlerCallback. In this case, simply return data that you want to send and it will be automatically json encoded using jsonEncode from the dart:convert library.

So, on the JavaScript side, to get data coming from the Dart side, you will use:

<script>
   window.addEventListener("flutterInAppWebViewPlatformReady", function(event) {
     window.flutter_inappwebview.callHandler('handlerFoo').then(function(result) {
       console.log(result);
     });

     window.flutter_inappwebview.callHandler('handlerFooWithArgs', 1, true, ['bar', 5], {foo: 'baz'}).then(function(result) {
       console.log(result);
     });
   });
</script>

Instead, on the onLoadStop WebView event, you can use callHandler directly:

  // Inject JavaScript that will receive data back from Flutter
  inAppWebViewController.evaluateJavascript(source: """
    window.flutter_inappwebview.callHandler('test', 'Text from Javascript').then(function(result) {
      console.log(result);
    });
  """);

`HeadlessInAppWebView` class #

Class that represents a WebView in headless mode. It can be used to run a WebView in background without attaching an InAppWebView to the widget tree.

Remember to dispose it when you don't need it anymore.

As InAppWebView, it has the same options and events. Use InAppWebViewController to control the WebView instance.

Example:

import 'dart:async';
import 'dart:io';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter/services.dart';
import 'package:flutter_inappwebview/flutter_inappwebview.dart';

Future main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  if (Platform.isAndroid) {
    await AndroidInAppWebViewController.setWebContentsDebuggingEnabled(true);
  }
  runApp(new MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _MyAppState createState() => new _MyAppState();
}

class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {

  HeadlessInAppWebView? headlessWebView;
  String url = "";

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();

    headlessWebView = new HeadlessInAppWebView(
      initialUrlRequest: URLRequest(
        url: Uri.parse("https://flutter.dev/")
      ),
      initialOptions: InAppWebViewGroupOptions(
        crossPlatform: InAppWebViewOptions(

        ),
      ),
      onWebViewCreated: (controller) {
        print('HeadlessInAppWebView created!');
      },
      onConsoleMessage: (controller, consoleMessage) {
        print("CONSOLE MESSAGE: " + consoleMessage.message);
      },
      onLoadStart: (controller, url) async {
        print("onLoadStart $url");
        setState(() {
          this.url = url?.toString() ?? '';
        });
      },
      onLoadStop: (controller, url) async {
        print("onLoadStop $url");
        setState(() {
          this.url = url?.toString() ?? '';
        });
      },
      onUpdateVisitedHistory: (controller, url, androidIsReload) {
        print("onUpdateVisitedHistory $url");
        setState(() {
          this.url = url?.toString() ?? '';
        });
      },
    );
  }

`InAppBrowser` class #

In-App Browser using native WebView.

inAppBrowser.webViewController can be used to access the InAppWebView API.

Create a Class that extends the InAppBrowser Class in order to override the callbacks to manage the browser events. Example:

import 'dart:io';

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_inappwebview/flutter_inappwebview.dart';

class MyInAppBrowser extends InAppBrowser {
  @override
  Future onBrowserCreated() async {

    print("\n\nStarted $url\n\n");
  }

  @override
  Future onLoadStop(url) async {
    print("\n\nStopped $url\n\n");
  }

  @override
  void onLoadError(url, code, message) {
    print("Can't load $url.. Error: $message");
  }

  @override
  void onProgressChanged(progress) {
    print("Progress: $progress");
  }

  @override
  void onExit() {
    print("\n\nBrowser closed!\n\n");
  }

  @override
  Future<NavigationActionPolicy?>? shouldOverrideUrlLoading(NavigationAction navigationAction)  async {
    print("\n\n override ${navigationAction.request.url}\n\n");
    return NavigationActionPolicy.ALLOW;
  }

  @override
  void onLoadResource(LoadedResource response) {
    print("Started at: " +
        response.startTime.toString() +
        "ms ---> duration: " +
        response.duration.toString() +
        "ms " +
        (response.url?.toString() ?? ''));
  }

  @override

    print("""
    console output:
      message: ${consoleMessage.message}
      messageLevel: ${consoleMessage.messageLevel.toValue()}

Future main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  if (Platform.isAndroid) {
    await AndroidInAppWebViewController.setWebContentsDebuggingEnabled(true);
  }
  runApp(
    new MyApp(),
  );
}

class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
  final MyInAppBrowser browser = new MyInAppBrowser();

  @override
  _MyAppState createState() => new _MyAppState();
}

class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: Scaffold(

        body: Center(
          child: ElevatedButton(
              onPressed: () {
                widget.browser.openFile(
                    assetFilePath: "assets/index.html",
                    options: InAppBrowserClassOptions(
                        inAppWebViewGroupOptions: InAppWebViewGroupOptions(
                            crossPlatform: InAppWebViewOptions(
                              useShouldOverrideUrlLoading: true,
                              useOnLoadResource: true,
                            ))));

`CookieManager` class #

This class implements a singleton object (shared instance) which manages the cookies used by WebView instances.

On Android, it is implemented using CookieManager. On iOS, it is implemented using WKHTTPCookieStore.

NOTE for iOS below 11.0 (LIMITED SUPPORT!): in this case, almost all of the methods (CookieManager.deleteAllCookies and IOSCookieManager.getAllCookies are not supported!) has been implemented using JavaScript because there is no other way to work with them on iOS below 11.0. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Cookies#restrict_access_to_cookies for JavaScript restrictions.

`CookieManager` methods

instance: Gets the cookie manager shared instance.
setCookie({required Uri url, required String name, required String value, String? domain, String path = "/", int? expiresDate, int? maxAge, bool? isSecure, bool? isHttpOnly, HTTPCookieSameSitePolicy? sameSite, InAppWebViewController? iosBelow11WebViewController}): Sets a cookie for the given url.

deleteCookies({required Uri url, String domain = "", String path = "/", InAppWebViewController? iosBelow11WebViewController}): Removes all cookies for the given url, domain and path.
deleteAllCookies(): Removes all cookies.

`CookieManager` iOS-specific methods

iOS-specific methods can be called using the CookieManager.instance().ios attribute.

getAllCookies(): Fetches all stored cookies.

`HttpAuthCredentialDatabase` class #

This class implements a singleton object (shared instance) which manages the shared HTTP auth credentials cache. On iOS, this class uses the URLCredentialStorage class. On Android, this class has a custom implementation using android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase because WebViewDatabase doesn't offer the same functionalities as iOS URLCredentialStorage.

`HttpAuthCredentialDatabase` methods

instance: Gets the database shared instance.
getAllAuthCredentials: Gets a map list of all HTTP auth credentials saved.
getHttpAuthCredentials({required URLProtectionSpace protectionSpace}): Gets all the HTTP auth credentials saved for that protectionSpace.
setHttpAuthCredential({required URLProtectionSpace protectionSpace, required URLCredential credential}): Saves an HTTP auth credential for that protectionSpace.
removeHttpAuthCredential({required URLProtectionSpace protectionSpace, required URLCredential credential}): Removes an HTTP auth credential for that protectionSpace.
removeHttpAuthCredentials({required URLProtectionSpace protectionSpace}): Removes all the HTTP auth credentials saved for that protectionSpace.
clearAllAuthCredentials(): Removes all the HTTP auth credentials saved in the database.

`WebStorageManager` class #

This class implements a singleton object (shared instance) which manages the web storage used by WebView instances.

On Android, it is implemented using WebStorage. On iOS, it is implemented using WKWebsiteDataStore.default()

NOTE for iOS: available from iOS 9.0+.

`WebStorageManager` methods

instance: Gets the WebStorage manager shared instance.

`WebStorageManager` Android-specific methods

Android-specific methods can be called using the WebStorageManager.instance().android attribute.

AndroidWebStorageManager class is used to manage the JavaScript storage APIs provided by the WebView. It manages the Application Cache API, the Web SQL Database API and the HTML5 Web Storage API.

getOrigins: Gets the origins currently using either the Application Cache or Web SQL Database APIs.
deleteAllData: Clears all storage currently being used by the JavaScript storage APIs.
deleteOrigin({required String origin}): Clears the storage currently being used by both the Application Cache and Web SQL Database APIs by the given origin.
getQuotaForOrigin({required String origin}): Gets the storage quota for the Web SQL Database API for the given origin.
getUsageForOrigin({required String origin}): Gets the amount of storage currently being used by both the Application Cache and Web SQL Database APIs by the given origin.

`WebStorageManager` iOS-specific methods

iOS-specific methods can be called using the WebStorageManager.instance().ios attribute.

IOSWebStorageManager class represents various types of data that a website might make use of. This includes cookies, disk and memory caches, and persistent data such as WebSQL, IndexedDB databases, and local storage.

fetchDataRecords({required Set<IOSWKWebsiteDataType> dataTypes}): Fetches data records containing the given website data types.
removeDataFor({required Set<IOSWKWebsiteDataType> dataTypes, required List<IOSWKWebsiteDataRecord> dataRecords}): Removes website data of the given types for the given data records.
removeDataModifiedSince({required Set<IOSWKWebsiteDataType> dataTypes, required DateTime date}): Removes all website data of the given types that has been modified since the given date.

WebRTC #

To work with WebRTC, you need to request camera and microphone permissions, for example using the permission_handler plugin:

import 'package:permission_handler/permission_handler.dart';

Future main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  await Permission.camera.request();
  await Permission.microphone.request();

  runApp(MyApp());
}

Also, you need to set the cross-platform option mediaPlaybackRequiresUserGesture to false in order to autoplay HTML5 audio and video.

After that, follow the instructions below for each platform where you want to use it.

To test WebRTC, you can try to visit https://appr.tc/.

WebRTC on Android

On Android, you need to implement the androidOnPermissionRequest event, that is an event fired when the WebView is requesting permission to access a specific resource. This event is used to grant permissions for the WebRTC API, for example:

androidOnPermissionRequest: (controller, origin, resources) async {
  return PermissionRequestResponse(resources: resources, action: PermissionRequestResponseAction.GRANT);
}

Also, you need to add these permissions in your AndroidManifest.xml file:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIDEO_CAPTURE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.AUDIO_CAPTURE" />

WebRTC on iOS

On iOS, WebRTC is supported starting from 14.3+.

You need to set the iOS-specific option allowsInlineMediaPlayback to true, for example:

initialOptions: InAppWebViewGroupOptions(
  crossPlatform: InAppWebViewOptions(
    mediaPlaybackRequiresUserGesture: false,
  ),
  android: AndroidInAppWebViewOptions(
    useHybridComposition: true
  ),
  ios: IOSInAppWebViewOptions(
    allowsInlineMediaPlayback: true,
  )
),

Note that on iOS, to be able to play video inline, the video HTML element must have the playsinline attribute, for example:

<video autoplay playsinline src="..."></video>

In your Info.plist file, you need to add also the following properties:

<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>Flutter requires access to microphone.</string>

<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>Flutter requires access to camera.</string>

If you open this file In Xcode, the NSMicrophoneUsageDescription property is represented by Privacy - Microphone Usage Description and NSCameraUsageDescription is represented by Privacy - Camera Usage Description.

Service Worker API #

Check https://caniuse.com/serviceworkers for JavaScript Service Worker API availability.

Service Worker API on Android

On Android, the AndroidServiceWorkerController and AndroidServiceWorkerClient classes can be used to intercept requests. Before using these classes or their methods, you should check if the service worker features you want to use are supported or not, for example:

Future main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  if (Platform.isAndroid) {
    await AndroidInAppWebViewController.setWebContentsDebuggingEnabled(true);

    var swAvailable = await AndroidWebViewFeature.isFeatureSupported(AndroidWebViewFeature.SERVICE_WORKER_BASIC_USAGE);
    var swInterceptAvailable = await AndroidWebViewFeature.isFeatureSupported(AndroidWebViewFeature.SERVICE_WORKER_SHOULD_INTERCEPT_REQUEST);

    if (swAvailable && swInterceptAvailable) {
      AndroidServiceWorkerController serviceWorkerController = AndroidServiceWorkerController.instance();

      serviceWorkerController.serviceWorkerClient = AndroidServiceWorkerClient(
        shouldInterceptRequest: (request) async {
          print(request);
          return null;
        },
      );
    }
  }

  runApp(MyApp());
}

Service Worker API on iOS

The JavaScript Service Worker API is available starting from iOS 14.0+.

To enable this JavaScript API on iOS there are only 2 ways:

using "App-Bound Domains"
your App proposes itself as a possible "Default Browser" such as iOS Safari or Google Chrome

iOS App-Bound Domains

Read the WebKit - App-Bound Domains article for details.

You can specify up to 10 "app-bound" domains using the new Info.plist key WKAppBoundDomains, for example:

<dict>
<key>WKAppBoundDomains</key>
<array>
    <string>flutter.dev</string>
    <string>github.com</string>
</array>
</dict>

After that, you need to set to true the limitsNavigationsToAppBoundDomains iOS-specific WebView option, for example:

InAppWebViewGroupOptions(
  ios: IOSInAppWebViewOptions(
    limitsNavigationsToAppBoundDomains: true // adds Service Worker API on iOS 14.0+
  )
)

iOS Default Browser

Read the Preparing Your App to be the Default Browser or Email Client article for details.
