5.7.0 (25 Oct, 2023)

Add

  • A new SetForwardWebConsoleToNativeOutput method which enables forwarding the web console log (such as console.log or console.error) to the native log output. On iOS, it prints the log to Xcode console, on Android to the Android logcat, and on macOS Editor to the Unity console. This is useful for debugging issues from the web page.
  • Now the OnWebContentProcessTerminated event will also be invoked when the render process is gone on Android (when the OnRenderProcessGone event is raise). This is a new behavior on Android 11 and above and the default handling will only prevent the whole app crash. You need to implement this event and try to release resources and/or perform a reload to recover.

Add

  • Support for customization of Kotlin and Android Browser package versions. This can help to resolve the conflict with other plugins which use another version of these packages.

Fix

  • Improve the visual effect of the Embedded Toolbar on iOS. Now it has a larger and bold font for the title.
  • A better way to find the root view controller for adding UniWebView to on iOS. Now you can implement a rootViewControllerForUniWebView method in your app delegate and return the view controller you want UniWebView to be added to. By default, if the app delegate does not implement either rootViewControllerForUniWebView or rootViewController, UniWebView now also tries to find the top-most view controller instead of the window's direct root view controller.

5.2.1 (4 Jan, 2023)

DANGER

3.0.0 is a major update of UniWebView. We rewrote the whole software from scratch to bring your experience of using a web view in Unity to a next level. Be caution it is not compatible with UniWebView 2, there are quite a few breaking changes in this version. For migration from UniWebView 2 in detail, visit our Migration Guideopen in new window in documentation. To know the highlight of the version, check this pageopen in new window for more.

Add

  • Better way to set frame of the web view. You can also use a reference RectTransform to set position and size.
  • Use WKWebView instead of UIWebView on iOS.

  • Use a payload based callback API like transition and JavaScript related methods. It takes more data. See [UniWebViewNativeResultPayload]https://docs.uniwebview.com(/api/uniwebviewnativeresultpayload.html).
  • SSL exception for white listed domain. It is useful for a un-trusted certification but you still want to access.
  • A method to get current web view HTML content as a string.

Fix

  • UniWebView Android no longer requires to be the main activity.

  • An API to enable inline video play for iOS. By default, iOS video play will be pop to full-screen. By calling SetAllowInlinePlay with a true flag, you can play video inline on iOS. Please note you also need to add an "inline" property in your video tag to support it.
  • SetCookie and GetCookie methods to set and get a cookie for a specified URL and key.

Fix

  • A potential issue that cleaning cookie did not work in some case. Since the logic of current cleaning cookie is not correct, we also marked the original CleanCookie method to be obsoleted. You should now use SetCookie method to set a cookie value to empty for cleaning purpose.

DANGER

Notice: Unity dropped Windows Phone 8 support officially from 5.3. UniWebView will not continue development for Windows Phone as well from this version.

Reason: The amount of our Windows Phone users is very few compared to iOS and Android (it is less than 1% share according to report). However, if we want to to support Windows Store App with Windows Phone 8.1 SDK or Windows 10 SDK, it would take even more time than either of other platforms.

Since the Windows Phone SDK itself is not backwards compatible, the transition from Windows 8 to 8.1 or 10 means we need to rewrite all code in the package.

We have only limited resource. To make sure we could build the asset in a better quality for most of our users, we decided to focus back to iOS and Android only from next version.

The current Windows Phone 8 support (UniWebViewWP.dll) will be kept in later versions of UniWebView for a while, but we are sorry that it doesn't seem to get updated anymore.

2.4.0 (4 Dec, 2015)

Add

  • Built-in show/hide transition. You could now show or hide the web view with a transition effect. Currently we support fade in/out and transition from/to one of screen edges. Please take a look at reference of Show() and Hide() for more. Add: Recreate new demo scenes as a better tutorial. Now most of the useful features are contained in the demo scenes, with fully commented script to show how to use them.
  • Now you can use "ESC" in OS X Editor to go back or close the web view.

Fix

  • The color of iOS toolbar is now white. This fixed an issue that the clear background tool bar will become black if no web page is underneath.
  • Fix an issue which cause show tool bar property not working in some situation.
  • Adjust the behavior of insets, it is a preparation for later feature like insets translating. The API of insets remains the same now.

Remove

  • iOS 8 and 5.5 inch iPhone 6 Plus support.

Fix

  • The auto-orientation issue on iOS 8. Now it works for both iOS 8 SDK.
  • Trim the url leading and trailing spaces, making the behaviors the same for iOS and Android.

Deprecate

  • UniWebViewHelper.RunningOnRetinaIOS() is now deprecated due to 3x size of iPhone 6 Plus. Use UniWebViewHelper.screenHeight and UniWebViewHelper.screenWidth to decide the insets for retina display now. See the migrate guide below for more.

Remove

  • Remove the long-ago deprecated Dismiss().
  • Remove support for Unity 4.1.4.

Migrate Guide - If you are using UniWebViewHelper.RunningOnRetinaIOS() to decide the insets of UniWebView, you may want to look at the Migrate Guide:

Due to introduction of iPhone 6 Plus and its new @3x scale, the old way would not work well. Now, all screen-size-based insets calculation for UniWebView should NOT use RunningOnRetinaIOS anymore. Instead you should use UniWebViewHelper.screenHeight and UniWebViewHelper.screenWidth and specify the point directly. For example, if you want to show a web view taking the upper half of screen, before version 1.7.0, it might be something like this:

int uiFactor = UniWebViewHelper.RunningOnRetinaIOS() ? 2 : 1;
int bottomInset = Screen.height / ( 2 * uiFactor );
_webView.insets = new UniWebViewEdgeInsets(0,0,bottomInset,0);

Right now, with the new API, you can just use this:

int bottomInset = (int)(UniWebViewHelper.screenHeight * 0.5f);
_webView.insets = new UniWebViewEdgeInsets(0,0,bottomInset,0);

No more ui factor and device-specified calculation needed.

To make sure you can notice this change, the usage of RunningOnRetinaIOS() will cause an error now. You can just delete all usage of that, and change your insets code like the example above.
