Kindly I need your advanced help.

I am using Webview component to get the current video url and it works fine on YouTube but not on Facebook.

Thanks for your help.

Could you please compile an APK for testing?

Ok, I have done so
:point_down:

It’s not problem from webviever or your side.
Did facebook provide current url in website when you open in chrome or any browser i think not.

#5

Sure @ShaikhSajidAli facebook didn’t, but how can we scrape this and get the current URL?

So facebook didn’t provide url due to privacy if video uploaded by user so getting this from scrap is not good. I know scrapping but i can’t help you in this.
You can ask user to manually insert url of video.

If you trying to build a full featured browser like chrome,
Then its not possible…
Web viewer has limited functions

You may do it with extension…
But such extension is not made till now
You can hire any extension developer
