Hi, i have a PWA made with Glide Apps and tried to use a webview with thunkable.

my problem is i cannot get the geolocation (show my current location) to work.

Has anyone tried this before?

I’m not exactly sure what you’re asking but if you just want the phone’s current location to appear in a web app from Thunkable, yes that’s possible.

Yes that’s great but how do allow the webviewer to ask user to allow location access?

I created an app to test, on iOS the location works fine. but on android, nothing happens.

Hmm, sorry, I can’t help you there. I only develop for iOS.

This thread is long but perhaps the end of it would be helpful to you:

Hi all, thanks for replying. It seems i made a noob mistake.

I had tested it on a Samsung Galaxy X5 (2014 model) and geolocation wouldn’t work.

But after testing it on a Samsung Note 5, it works fine.

So it’s possibly the old OS has issues that interfered. Testing it on newer devices has no issue too.

@jkkr6, but you can turn any Thunkable project [into a web app](https://docs.thunkable.com/publish-as-a-web-app-pro)?

Also, why not use the [location sensor](https://docs.thunkable.com/location-sensor) in your app?
