url_launcher. Can we clear the cache when launching webview?

[BirdyF]

I am using url_launcher (launch and closeWebView) to show Strava login and approval/scope.
It seems that webview (correct me if I am wrong) is keeping stuff in a cache because behavior is different when it is the first run of the app (after install) or the following runs.

Is there a way to clear the cache of the webview from url_launcher?

Is it possible to add in a future release of url_launcher an option to clear the cache before launching a webview?

If I understand url_launcher correct it just launches the OS browser.

Best to ask on stackoverflow too.

Might be able to use the cookie clearing functionality that landed in flutter/plugins#1200 to implement this?

No Webview, used url_launch

Same here, would be great to have a way to clear the webview cache in url_launcher.

url_launcher is intended to have a minimal API for launching, and the API of SFViewController is extremely limited so this couldn't be implemented on iOS anyway. Use cases that need detailed control of the webview should build on webview_flutter instead.

Closing as out of scope.
