Steps to reproduce

Nothing special to do. My project was able to build on targetSDK 32, but failed on targetSDK 33.

Are you sure you have already searched for the same problem?

Some people open new issues but they didn't search for something similar or for the same issue. Please, search for it using the GitHub issue search box or on the official inappwebview.dev website, or, also, using Google, StackOverflow, etc. before posting a new one. You may already find an answer to your problem!

If this is really a new issue, then thank you for raising it. I will investigate it and get back to you as soon as possible. Please, make sure you have given me as much context as possible! Also, if you didn't already, post a code example that can replicate this issue.

In the meantime, you can already search for some possible solutions online! Because this plugin uses native WebView, you can search online for the same issue adding android WebView [MY ERROR HERE] or ios WKWebView [MY ERROR HERE] keywords.

Following these steps can save you, me, and other people a lot of time, thanks!

Need to downgrade targetSdkVersion and compileSdkVersion to 32 Also some other packages to older version, e.g: permission_handler: ^9.2.0

At least we can run our app until this issue fixed.

[cvphat]

same issue

[nastaran-mohammadi]

same issue

[MTM-A]

i also have the same problem

[leopi99]

same here with Flutter 3.0.3

[vytautas-pranskunas-]

any fix?

[muktadirsonyy911]

Same issue in flutter 3.0.3 and Dart 2.17.5

[ahmetbesli]

the solution can be downgrading the API level to 32. It worked for me

[apparatchiki]

Sadly I have other dependencies that require me to compile for / target API level 33... hope this can be sorted out soon.

[bzamanbd]

According to my project:

1. CompileSdkVersion to 32
2. Packages: permission_handler: ^9.2.0

Now I am able to open my App....

[linpengteng]

Sadly I have other dependencies that require me to compile for / target API level 33... hope this can be sorted out soon.

I encountered the same problem, but after I upgraded Android studio (2021.2.1 patch 1) and gradle (7.3.3), I can set targetsdkversion 33 and compilesdkversion 33, and flutter build apk successful.

[venky9885]

Please solve this issue I am too facing it

[nguyenhuuduc458]

Same here in android native with targetsdkversion 33 and compilesdkversion 33. Anyone who fixed this issue please reply to me soon. I really appreciate any help you can provide.

Removed Methods

Not sure what the resolution will be

Getting this issue when using this plugin html_editor_enhanced which uses flutter_inappwebview.

Wont be able to downgrade to 32, already at flutter 3.0.5. Works flawlessly in Web, real pain is in compiling for Android

[rshrc]

Hi Guys! So I did a temp fix for people who still have an issue with this Android 33 SDK version.

dependency_overrides:
  flutter_inappwebview:
    git:
      url: https://github.com/rshrc/flutter_inappwebview
      ref: master

Add this to your pubspec.yaml. The temp fix we ran through our production web app, didn't seem to cause any crashes or problems. Helped compile the apps properly in Android SDK 33 with flutter 3.0.5. Hope this helps for a while!

[manuwehmeier]

I am also getting the same errors with version 5.4.3+7 of flutter_inappwebview. Since it is not possible for me to downgrade to API version 32 and we don't want to include a fork of this project into ours, it would be nice if this issue could be solved soon.

[srihari9n]

@pichillilorenzo @rshrc's fork seems to be working fine, can you please look into the changes and maybe a PR can be made and accepted? It is a pain to include forks as dependencies and then switch back to the original at later point keeping an eye on updates.

[huylethanh]

I got the same issue. please fix it.

Seems like you used the git repo in the dependency: key, need to use it in dependency_overrides.Share your pubspec.yaml once.

[mehaknexever]

Any new solution for this problem? I have tried above methods I cannot downgrade sdk version from 33 because system is specifying compilesdk version to be 33 and @rshrc solution gave me a lot of another errors.

[srihari9n]

@vijayvaghela72

"Transitive dependency" means your program depends on it, because of a dependency you have that depends on it.

To find out which of your dependencies uses which other dependency, you can run:

flutter pub deps

It will show you a dependency tree with version numbers. Check which package is using flutter_inappwebview and then remove that dependency too.
