@mark  
My app’s URL: [https://uploadtocloudinary.glideapp.io/](https://uploadtocloudinary.glideapp.io/)

The action Open web view is no longer working. Above app is depending on this.

Steps:

- click on “upload images to company”
- select “faster company”
- Add images"
- click “upload an image” (no webpage appears anymore)

I can see that a new component Webview has been released and is made Pro. So this might be related.

My thinking is that the webview action is now Pro as well.

@ThinhDinh I would like to hear @mark comments on that.  
I don’t think that glide will change existing components from free to pro without telling the app developers

> I just tried it this is awesome, however it seems that the webview action has been conditioned to Pro as well. I can see the websites in the builder but not on my phone. Even those sites that I was able to see before the component. Edit: The webview action not displaying the sites has been reported by @Mark as a bug.

Santiago mentioned the same thing in my post this morning.

Maybe its just me…Webview for me is not working in the builder… .  
Update.  
Tonight I was realizing that it was working in brand new app only to see this behavior,  
now its not again…it simply shows up only url make like this [http://www](http://www).\_\_\_\_\_\_.com/net etc  
not the subfolder as far I can see , I’ve tried to put a bit.ly there , in the past was working, now its not,  
as I said maybe its just me…but this ruins my chance to add my site right inside the Glideapp as it is now.  
UPDATE 2  
I did not put there the / after the last word , I think I need to put my glasses on next time ,  
So far so good seems its working.  
Glide is making a very very good work but, as for the IN APP PURCHASES missing and thanks to the ones who are giving us their solution I think there is a lot to be improved , I hope they are reading posts, being on developing Glide like hell , could be really useful read our experiences after all.  
I hope too and I’m off topic now, to see a better AUDIO PLAYER , where we can customize its appearance.  
By the way, till now , hope to have webview back bacause could make our app gain features that Glide is now missing.

My bad i’m actually using https , what i found is that you need or it’s my case only ,to insert the complete url ,  
ex : https:// www.blabla._**/bla/  
not : [https://www.blabla](https://www.blabla).**_/bla
