I'm new in Android world (as user but also as developer) and my Android App crash when execute myWebView.loadUrl("https://www.google.com"), but I don't understand why...
The goal is monitoring internet connection while the app is running: If the connection is lost -> loads the error html in the web view If the connection returns active -> reload the web view
Here's my app code:
Manifest
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.dedalos.amb">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<application
android:name=".MyApplication"
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"

</activity>
<activity android:name=".MainActivity">

Thanks in advance
According to this you need to call all view related methods on UI thread. Just load the url on UI thread like this:
myWebView.post(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
myWebView.loadUrl("https://www.google.com");
}
});
You also need to load your error html in the same way, like:
view.post(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
String html = "<!DOCTYPE HTML>\n" +
"<html>\n" +
"<head>\n" +
"<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=UTF-8\" />\n" +
"<title>APP</title>\n" +
"</head>\n" +
"<body style=\"background:#e11020;font-family:Arial,Helvetica;\">\n" +
"<h1 style=\"color:rgba(255,255,255,0.9);text-align:center;padding:120px 20px 20px 20px;font-size:30px;\">No Internet connection</h1>\n" +
"</body>\n" +
"</html>";
view.loadDataWithBaseURL(null, html, "text/html", "UTF-8", null);
}
});
