Webview works fine on the builder but when it comes to using the app on any device it doesn’t work. I don’t have a pro app I think this could be the problem because of the PRO next to the element add.

If this is the reason is it possible to add a “webview” with Rich text.

Thanks in advance,  
Charlie.

> The Web View component is a Pro only feature. The Open Web View action is available for all account types, but you will not be able to embed into an existing Details layout screen. You can see it in the builder because it’s available for development, but the release version of the app will not have that component if it falls under the free account.

No, I don’t believe you can embed other sites through the Rich Text component. That’s what the WebView component is for.

It’s working normally for me.

Just to make sure, webview component is available on Glide Apps but not Glide Pages.
