Hello, While browsing the Chrome Custom Tabs github repository I saw this commit; https://github.com/GoogleChrome/custom-tabs-client/commit/f68fb050a78be781cbaacb7a34a96ca902dda0f3
It would be hugely appreciated if somebody could provide me with some information as to when these changes will be released and the dependencies on the change. At present I am using Chrome Custom Tabs to display a web page and attempting to communicate from the web page to the app that opened the Custom Tab using a deep-link redirect. This has proved very troublesome due to fragmentation between how different devices/OS's handle the deep-linking. Initially my implementation made the deep-link redirect in response to a (user initiated) HTTP request, Chrome saw this deep-link as not a result of a user gesture so blocked the deep-link and gave an error in the browser console "Navigation is blocked". I altered the experience of the web page so as to prompt the user to click a button that did the deep-link & Chrome no longer blocked the deep-link as it was clearly the result of a user gesture. Unfortunately, on a subset of devices this still didn't fix the issue and my deep-links are still not being consistently delivered. The changes in this commit look like they could solve all of my problems. I already integrate my page with websites using window.postMessage and if I could do similar to support Android devices I would be absolutely delighted. My questions are; - Does anybody know when these changes will be released? - Does anybody know the compatibility information on this change? (I assume a certain Chrome version will be required, but will there be any change to requirements on an OS level?) - Will this change allow me to communicate Custom Tab -> App with the native javascript window.postMessage? Any information would be hugely appreciated! Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
