Darryl Pogue created CB-6033: -------------------------------- Summary: Android 4.4 update loses LocalStorage data Key: CB-6033 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6033 Project: Apache Cordova Issue Type: Bug Components: Android Reporter: Darryl Pogue Priority: Critical
This appears to be a result of the switch from old WebView to the new Chrome-powered WebView. If an app is installed in 4.3 and saves data to LocalStorage (and possibly to WebSQL) and then the device is updated to 4.4, that data appears to be lost.
