Hi @worldfromyeyer, thanks for following up with us. Weâve discussed this with our engineers and they are looking into it - let me discuss internally to get a sense of what the timeline looks like.
Thanks for your patience!

Well, one workaround Iâve got is:
Placing the all the js external scripts into 1 html file
So where youâd normally have something like this in your header.
``
Instead manually visit that src url endpoint and copy/paste the text to within your script tag.

Related to this issue - [Local html file Thunkable Web Viewer Extensions](https://community.thunkable.com/t/local-html-file-thunkable-web-viewer-extensions/1697237)
* * *
Hi! I was experimenting with HTML in my app, and I found an error - when I added my functional html file (which receives some data from webview extension, processes it and sends it back to me the same way it came) to my appâs assets and set my webviewerâs url to the fileâs name, it didnât do anything in my android live app (latest version).
 ⥠
However it seems to work in  option on Thunkable and in an installed apk on android. I havenât tested on iOS live/installed app, as I do not have an iOS device. Is there anyone else who faces this error too?

This is an old issue that has never been resolved despite numerous promises.
@jared is aware of the issue
