Hi, Today I am going to show you how to Add Pull to Refresh in Webview App. In the Last post, I have shown you How to Add Progress Dialog in Android Webview App. Let's start.

First, we will write code in "activity_main.xml" file, we will take a "SwipeRefreshLayout" above our Webview, and we will close it below "Webview".

swiperefreshlayout width and height will match_parent, and you need to give a id, I am giving id is "swipe".


We have finished coding in "activity_main.xml" file. So, the whole code will be in activity_main.xml file is :

Now we will move to "MainActivity.xml" file. First we will take a private SwipeRefreshLayout variable, will give the name "swipeRefreshLayout".

After that, in "onCreate" function we need to retrieve swiperefreshlayout design from activity_main.xml file and store it to swiperefreshlayout variable which we have taken above.

And Also you need to call onRefreshListener and I will give custom color for SwipeRefreshLayout, you can use default color also. See below code:


We have finished writing code for "Pull to Refresh". So, the whole code will be in MainActivity.java is:


Now we will run our project.


as you can see my screenshot we have successfully added pull to Refresh function in our Webview app. Thanks.

Hi, Today I am going to show you how to add progress dialog in Webview or any android app. Let's Start.

After that within "oncreate" section you need to assign that variable pd, then you have to set Message which you want to show when the website loading. In my case, I will show "Loading Please wait....".

After that, you need to write a function below "onCreate" and then you need to call that function inside onCreate and pass into WebViewClient function. See below code:



I have given the name of that function is "mbfllixer" and "web" is my variable name, in that variable I stored webview layout. Also you have to call an override function "onPageFinished". When our website loading will finish, the Progress Dialog should go. So, the code will be:


We have finished the coding for showing Progress Dialog. So the whole final code will be in MainActivity.java is :


And the whole code will be in activity_main.xml is :



That's it, now we will run our project, As you can see in my screenshot below we have successfully added Progress Dialog in our Webview App.


If you face any problem, you can let us know in the comment box below. Thanks.

Are you stuck with the problem "How to allow file upload and download in webview" also? Don't worry, Today I am going to show you how to write the code in android studio to support file upload in android webview app. 

Before we move to the tutorial about uploading part I would like to let you know that we already have a post about "How to enable download in webview?". However Let's Start.

First of all, You need to give 3 permission in AndoidManifest.xml. Those are given below:


After that, you need to write code in MainActivity.java file. You need to take some global variable for opening file chooser with camera option, see below code:

After that, you need to write code for showing "file chooser". Just copy the below code and paste it into your WebChromeClient function. By the way, you can see below code contain "web" is my variable name, I have retrieved and stored my Webview from activity_main.xml.you need to replace that variable "web" with your variable name.


Then you need to write Override function after "onCreate", See below code.



Don't forget to write this line of code in your "strings.xml" file.



Whenever you will paste these codes in your project you see lots of red words. you need to click on that red word then press "alt+Enter" then it will import class automatically. Or you can just copy below import class and paste in your import section. all the Error will go.

After paste above import class, you will see almost all the error gone, only 5 error still there, they are "uri", "uploadMsg" and "result". you need to click on "result" then will show suggestion you need to click on that, then all the error will go. See below picture:



So, the whole final code will be in MainActivty.java is:


In conclusion, we have finished our coding for our Webview App. Now we will run our project on Emulator. As you can see in my screenshot, it's working perfectly.



By the way, If you face any problem, let us know in the comment box below. We will try our best to solve your problem. Thanks.

How to Enable Download in Android Webview App? In the Last post of our Webview Series, I have shown How to Add Splash Screen in Any Android App. Webview doesn't support Download or Upload in App. Today I will show you how can you download any files, video, audio, pdf, image e.t.c file. In the next post, I will show you how to Enable Upload in Webview App. So, Let's Start.
First of all, you need to write a function that will ask users to give permission to access their photos, files, and media in their Mobile Phone. Because for saving the downloaded file on our mobile phone, the Download Manager needs to access it.


Now For handling download in webview, we need to write another function, in that function we will set notification visibility visible until download complete. Also, we will give saving file directory path "Download".




So, Whole final code will be in MainActivity.java file is :


After that, we need to go to AndroidManifest.xml for giving WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission. (Don't forget this step otherwise, your app can be crashed)


We have finished our coding for Enabling Download in Webview, now I will run my project.


As you can see in the video and my screenshot of App, my website is about 25 types of social media free video downloader, and I have shown about Vimeo video download, as you can see all the function is working perfectly in my Webview App. I am recommending you to watch the above video for a better understanding. And if you face any problem in code or Error, don't hesitate to contact me. Thanks

First of all, you need to create a New Empty Activity from the left side, click the app and press right button of your mouse then select "New"-->" Activity"-->"Empty Activity"

First, you need to go activity_main.xml, in the activity_main.xml file above WebView(the previous post I have shown how to set up WebView) you need to take a Progress Bar.you need to select "width" is "match_parent" and "height" is "wrap_content".Then you need to take an Id, I have given that id name is progressBar, then have to take ProgressBar Style like you can take circle type, Horizontal Bar type e.t.c.I am taking Horizontal type ProgressBarStyleHorizontal

Code:

<ProgressBar style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleHorizontal" android:id="@+id/progressBar" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"/> [

Code:

private ProgressBar progressBar;

Code:

progressBar = (ProgressBar) findViewById(R.id.progressBar);

Code:

progressBar = (ProgressBar) findViewById(R.id.progressBar); web.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() { // page loading progress, gone when fully loaded public void onProgressChanged(WebView view, int progress) { if (progress < 100 && progressBar.getVisibility() == ProgressBar.GONE) { progressBar.setVisibility(ProgressBar.VISIBLE); } if (progress == 100) { progressBar.setVisibility(ProgressBar.GONE); } progressBar.setProgress(progress); } });
