Embedded browser on Android missing?

Jaytee

Hey there.

I have a game which main function contains access to the embedded browser. And now i want it out on Google Play for Android. But when i test my game, it closes my game and goes to Chrome to view my URL. Am i doing something wrong or is it just not possible to do on Android?

Android does not support embedded browsers. Sorry

It would be huge.. More valuable to developers than you may think to include a custom webview option allowing us to start selling ad space in our apps dynamically and slowly eliminating low paying ad networks like Revmob, etc.

Lets face it.. The open URL option does not embed in Android and it does not allow

I have seen other developers using other platforms doing extremely well with this method as they have the ability to plug in new ads dynamically filling ad space with CPA offers, Affiliate Offers, as well as selling ad space to other game developers to advertise other games.

This is more important than you may realize for controlled monetization for developers to earn from FREE downloads.

I also realize that others have stated that Android does not support embedded browsers but I have successfully created a embedded browser on Android Devices and works great using Adobe Air. So it does seem to look like android does support embedded browsers.

Did some more research and looks like Android has a WebView widget that might work. I will look into it and see if will meet our needs.

Inclusion of the WebView widget will be awesome!

In embedded browser is one option that is a bigger deal than some may think for a number of reasons and hopefully is worked on..
