when you set visible = false (properties or block code) of webviewer… it’s crashing the app only on Android, iOS is working fine. It happens both Thunkable Live and downloaded. position:absolute not working either absolute size set to 0, also not working if no url, it works my workaround: set absolute height to 0.1 and change background-color of my html to fit app’s color https://x.thunkable.com/copy/150f6b7ffa06cb047bd6b64b06405afd

Hi there, You say that your project works when you test an old APK. When did you most recently download an APK that does allow you to execute your javascript from a hidden Web Viewer?

Hi Jane, It was between May 10 and 12, because on May, 13 it already have this issue.

Just set the size of the web viewer to the smallest possible and position it off the screen. This way you can leave it visible.

I know about it @muneer, I’m using it like this… but it’s not the ideal. It appears like a dot in the screen, when you have background color set, other than white.

[image] lamagalhaes: It appears like a dot in the screen It will not if you position it outside of the visible area of the screen. You can set the X and Y position to -10 for example which will force the component to go off the screen.

I already tried this… but it does crash too

[image] App keeps crashing on Android APK & Live Questions about Thunkable This is what I did for the web viewer to work (DnD UI) to make it work. It never worked good if set to invisible. [image]

I have the same problem :frowning:

I’m having this issue too but in a different way, because I’m not hiding the wbv itself but a column where it is in after changing its url. The problem: [ezgif-2-7af3d3d7cf] The code: [image] The workaround is to set height and width of the column to zero.
