Moving this to cordova-android, wkwebview plugin is only for iOS and don't have any android implementation, therefore there isn't anything in that plugin that would cause android to crash.

With that being said, can you provide the version of cordova-android that you're running and ensure that you don't have any other plugins. If you do have more active plugins, please list them and their versions. Thanks.

Looks similar to this issue and some others like it: react-native-webview/react-native-webview#968

@cmcrcruces Any update on this. I am facing this issue too.

[breautek]

It is most likely a plugin that is causing a crash, though it's really hard to say.

I'd start removing plugins one by one until the problem goes away... and if it does, then you know which plugin is the culprit.

I faced the same error.
Did you solve the problem?

[msmtamburro]

I think we need to add this before the webview engine creates the webview. Otherwise, if another webview, in another activity is created, and tries to write something, the app will crash.

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.P) {
WebView.setDataDirectorySuffix("somethingUniqueForCordova");
}

Closing as stale.
