Hello, How I can return webview platform with capacitor? I’m using ionic platform but everytime the verification returns false.

Import: import {Platform} from '@ionic-angular'

Inject in constructor…

checking:

if(this.platform.is('cordova'){
console.log('is webview');
} else {
console.log('isn't webview');
}

Everytime i’m receiving isn’t webview in device

You can use device plugin https://capacitor.ionicframework.com/docs/apis/device. Check that the platform value is ios or android, when using the web implementation it has “pwa” value even when tested on mobile devices.

For this.platform.is(‘cordova’) not being true, that’s an Ionic bug. In Ionic 3 I’ve tested and returns 3, on Ionic 4 I think it has been fixed recently, but maybe it’s not released yet.
