Android webview gamepad support
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
I am creating a new WebView using the WebChromClient and loading up an external web game with gamepad support. The gamepad is not detected by the webpage. This page works fine using chrome on my Android TV. I find no information on having to enable the gamepad for an android app or webvew.
This is my code inside the Activity class:
WebView webView = findViewById(R.id.myWebView);
WebChromeClient client = new WebChromeClient();
webView.setWebChromeClient(client);
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
This is the javascript gameloop code from my site:
function gameLoop()
let gamepads = navigator.getGamepads();
requestAnimationFrame(gameLoop);
gameLoop();
gamepads is always an array of 4 nulls, no errors just that no gamepads are detected even after mashing buttons on the gamepad.
When I run the same site using chrome on the same device gamepads[0] has a object set.
