[jira] [Comment Edited] (CB-7179) [InAppBrowser][iOS 8] Update to
support WKWebView
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-7179?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15445005#comment-15445005 ]

-----------------------------------------------------------
It has now been a year and a half since this was closed, and I must ask that this needs to be reopened.
When using WKWebView engine in Cordova, the InAppBrowser, based on UIWebView, cannot share the session. This means that the InAppBrowser cannot be used for anything that requires a session, as the InAppBrowser is practically an "incognito" window.
Right now I am forced to continue using UIWebView as my only browser, because the InAppBrowser is UIWebView. What I suggest is making an additional plugin for an InAppBrowser that uses UIWebView if the main webview is based on UIWebView, and uses WKWebView if the main webview is based on WKWebView. That way you can share the session in the InAppBrowser regardless of which engine you use.
Cordova with UIWebView using InAppBrowser with UIWebView --> works
Cordova with WKWebView using InAppBrowser with UIWebView --> doesn't work
