location and camera permission issues on xamarin forms while using webview

[soykanozcelik]

Hi All,

I've had trouble with location and permission issues on Xamarin forms while using WebView control.

i've a small project with Xamarin forms which has 2 XAML pages and one of displaying my responsive asp net webform application via WebView control.

app first check if eg firmName preference is exist if not
asking firm nickname and accept it and set it preferences_set way (via xamarin essentials) then populate webview.source eg "https://aaa.bb/login.aspx?fid=" + firmName + "?per&did=7d82ae35-4937-40b2-8c9d-a60b8020043f";

after loading webview content there is several javascript functions one for qrcode reading which using zxing library on the default page (eg. default.aspx)

library can access camera sources but when I click button start scan button i getting an error message that "please grant location permission" but both of permissions already granted on Android settings and also chrome browser

Normally web apps run well on mobile browsers and desktop browsers after accepting permissions but when i run the app from apk through webview i am getting that above message.

I've tried several techniques with AI support but I couldn't success :/

i am sending my android project and also javascript codes that on the related aspx page

1- would you like to check my project and javascript codes and modify its to run properly

2- if Xamarin forms are not possible to resolve my problem and require under maui would you like to create and adapt my codes on it? maui cross platform or separately Android WebView and iOS WebView via Blazor

NOT : you can test the WebView permission issue under WebView at https://xsentius.net/zxing-camera.html
and also see the full html and javascript codes at https://github.com/zxing-js/library/blob/master/docs/examples/qr-camera/index.html

Any help, suggestions will be very appreciated

Xamarin Forms and WebForms! Are you living in the past?
I would think that running an http site in the webview disconnects it from the given app permission. That html/js code should run on the device directly (locally), not over http. This is where blazor shines.

Xamarin Forms and WebForms! Are you living in the past?
Xamarin form and aspnet webform pages inside webview yes since camera and location access ans still working well

http(s) connections accepting by browsers for camera and location

This is where blazor shines.
I've tried with sample blazor webview app which is my sample url result is the same permissons denied

PS : at the app side (android app) with the js code didn't tested
