[webview_flutter] onPageFinished never gets called on iOS with an invalid URL

[S4b3]

I'm working with webview_flutter in order to Auth my users through Cognito's auth endpoint.

This is my WebView:

    return WebView(
        initialUrl: url,
        userAgent: 'Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 6.0; Nexus 5 Build/MRA58N) ' +
            'AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3202.94 Mobile Safari/537.36',
        javascriptMode: JavascriptMode.unrestricted,
        onWebViewCreated: (WebViewController webViewController) {
          _webViewController.complete(webViewController);
        },
        navigationDelegate: (NavigationRequest request) async {
          print("Current url : ${request.url}");
          if (request.url.startsWith('myapp://?code=')) {
            print("Preventing navigation");
            return NavigationDecision.prevent;
          }
          print("Navigated to url");
        },
        onPageFinished: (String url) async {
          print("onPageFinished with url: $url");
          if (url.startsWith('myapp://?code=')) {
            code = url.substring('myapp://?code='.length).split('#')[0];
            final Map<String, String> userData = await globals.cognitoClient
                .signUserInWithThirdPartyAuthCode(code);
            final UserModel user = await globals.appSyncClient.fetchMyProfile();
            userState.user = user;
            if (user.username != null && user.username != '') {
              Navigator.pushNamedAndRemoveUntil(
                  context, '/home', (Route<dynamic> route) => false);
            } else {
              Navigator.pushReplacement(context, MaterialPageRoute<dynamic>(
                builder: (BuildContext context) {
                  return TpSignUpPage(
                    name: userData['name'],
                    surname: userData['surname'],
                    tptype: widget.tpType,
                  );
                },
              ));
            }
          }
        },
        gestureNavigationEnabled: true,
      );

Preventing navigation when the url contains my auth code allows me to do the magic inside onPageFinished and on Android everything works fine.

On the other hand, on iOS the onPageFinished callback never gets called. The print never shows up in the console and the navigation stops at the auth code without nothing getting done. I've even checked if requests are for the main frame, they are.
This is what i get:

flutter: Current url : https://xxxxxxxxxxx.auth.eu-central-1.amazoncognito.com/oauth2/authorize?identity_provider=Facebook&redirect_uri=myapp://&response_type=CODE&client_id=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx&scope=email%20openid%20profile%20aws.cognito.signin.user.admin
flutter: Navigated to url
flutter: Current url : myapp://?code=4xxxxxxx-xxx8-xxxx-a88a-7xxxxxxxxx3
flutter: Preventing navigation

Whereas after every navigation onPageFinished's supposed to be called.
I really don't know how or why this might happen; I've searched through many issues and my current Info.plist contains :

    <key>io.flutter.embedded_views_preview</key>
    <true/>

and this is my flutter doctor -v:

Steps to Reproduce : I'm assuming just run a webview on ios having onPageFinished populated ?
What could be causing this issue? Pls send help

Hi @S4b3
Can you please provide` a complete reproducible minimal code sample
I tried to reproduce using the official example

Thank you

[S4b3]

Sadly the official example doesn't cover my issue.
As for what I managed to understand during the past few days, having this as a webview:

return WebView(
       initialUrl: 'myapp://?code',
       userAgent: 'Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 6.0; Nexus 5 Build/MRA58N) ' +
           'AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3202.94 Mobile Safari/537.36',
       javascriptMode: JavascriptMode.unrestricted,
       onWebViewCreated: (WebViewController webViewController) {
         _webViewController.complete(webViewController);
       },
       javascriptChannels: <JavascriptChannel>[
         _toasterJavascriptChannel(context),
       ].toSet(),
       navigationDelegate: (NavigationRequest request) {
         if (request.url.startsWith('https://www.youtube.com/')) {
           print('blocking navigation to $request}');
           return NavigationDecision.prevent;
         }
         print('allowing navigation to $request');
         return NavigationDecision.navigate;
       },
       onPageStarted: (String url) {
         print('Page started loading: $url');
       },
       onPageFinished: (String url) {
         print('Page finished loading: $url');
       },
       gestureNavigationEnabled: true,
     );
   }

Which only differs from the official example for the initialUrl, reproduces my problem.
Apparently Android's WebView manages to call the onPageFinished callback regardless if the Navigation was prevented or if the url hasn't led to an actual page; which to me sounds about right, since the page was infact loaded.

On iOS, instead, the method gets called way less (never, in this particular occasion) which ends up causing my problem.
For example, with the webview I quoted above this is the android console log:

I/flutter (14681): Page started loading: myapp://?code
I/flutter (14681): Page finished loading: myapp://?code

And this is iOS' :

flutter: allowing navigation to NavigationRequest(url: myapp://?code, isForMainFrame: true)
flutter: Page started loading: myapp://?code

Basically if loading the page would lead to an error or if the navigation was prevented the onPageFinished callback doesn't get called on iOS, which is a completely different behavior than android's and is causing me a massive headache.

Is there any way to manually handle this case?

Hi @S4b3
Thanks for the details, I can reproduce the invalid initialUrl

With invalid URL on iOS

[  +44 ms] flutter: Page started loading: myapp://?code

With invalid URL on Android

[  +20 ms] I/flutter ( 9566): Page started loading: myapp://?code
[  +14 ms] I/flutter ( 9566): Page finished loading: myapp://?code

I can reproduce the issue on master 2.5.0-7.0.pre.83 and stable 2.2.3 with webview_flutter: ^2.0.12.

On android navigation happens and the page throws an error, however on iOS, the screen is just blank.

iOS logs

flutter: allowing navigation to NavigationRequest(url: myapp://?code, isForMainFrame: true)
flutter: Page started loading: myapp://?code

android logs

Any solutions or workarounds to this?
I'm currently experiencing a similar issue with onPageFinished never being called on iOS but working just fine on Android (and this is with a valid url...).

[bhayatus]

Also getting this issue for a valid url, in my case onPageStarted is called on Android, but not iOS.

[lllyyy]

iOS除了第一个url，在h5中跳转其他url无法触发onPageFinished方法

[yogeshButani]

WebView(
initialUrl: widget.txn_data.transaction!.url,
javascriptMode: JavascriptMode.unrestricted,
onWebViewCreated: (WebViewController webViewController) {
_controller = webViewController;
},
onPageFinished: (finish) async {
final response = await _controller!
.runJavascriptReturningResult(
"document.documentElement.innerText");
print("response is >>>>>>>>>>${jsonDecode(response)}");
Map<String, dynamic> jsonResponse =
convert.jsonDecode(jsonDecode(response));
successTxnModel responsemain =
successTxnModel.fromJson(jsonResponse);
if (responsemain.status == true) {
UtilityHlepar().getToast('Payment Success');

              showCustomDialog(context, popup());
              print('Success');
            } else {
              print('output is ${responsemain.message}');
              print('status is ${responsemain.status}');
              print('data is ${responsemain.data}');
              Navigator.pushAndRemoveUntil(
                  context,
                  MaterialPageRoute(
                      builder: (context) => Dashboard_Screen()),
                  (route) => false);
              UtilityHlepar().getToast('Payment Failed');
            }
          },
        ),

Same issue, if else condition not calling on ios, works perfect on android...what is the solution of this?

[yogeshButani]

Sadly the official example doesn't cover my issue. As for what I managed to understand during the past few days, having this as a webview:

return WebView(
       initialUrl: 'myapp://?code',
       userAgent: 'Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 6.0; Nexus 5 Build/MRA58N) ' +
           'AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3202.94 Mobile Safari/537.36',
       javascriptMode: JavascriptMode.unrestricted,
       onWebViewCreated: (WebViewController webViewController) {
         _webViewController.complete(webViewController);
       },
       javascriptChannels: <JavascriptChannel>[
         _toasterJavascriptChannel(context),
       ].toSet(),
       navigationDelegate: (NavigationRequest request) {
         if (request.url.startsWith('https://www.youtube.com/')) {
           print('blocking navigation to $request}');
           return NavigationDecision.prevent;
         }
         print('allowing navigation to $request');
         return NavigationDecision.navigate;
       },
       onPageStarted: (String url) {
         print('Page started loading: $url');
       },
       onPageFinished: (String url) {
         print('Page finished loading: $url');
       },
       gestureNavigationEnabled: true,
     );
   }

Which only differs from the official example for the initialUrl, reproduces my problem. Apparently Android's WebView manages to call the onPageFinished callback regardless if the Navigation was prevented or if the url hasn't led to an actual page; which to me sounds about right, since the page was infact loaded.

On iOS, instead, the method gets called way less (never, in this particular occasion) which ends up causing my problem. For example, with the webview I quoted above this is the android console log:

I/flutter (14681): Page started loading: myapp://?code
I/flutter (14681): Page finished loading: myapp://?code

And this is iOS' :

flutter: allowing navigation to NavigationRequest(url: myapp://?code, isForMainFrame: true)
flutter: Page started loading: myapp://?code

Basically if loading the page would lead to an error or if the navigation was prevented the onPageFinished callback doesn't get called on iOS, which is a completely different behavior than android's and is causing me a massive headache.

Is there any way to manually handle this case?

how did you solve the issue? please help me
