  • Dear,
    Immediately after installing your application on my phone (Android 7.1.1), I log in without problems and download all the contacts from my account on the phone. However, after the second run of the application, I see the message 'Android System WebView not installed'. What happens, really I need to install WebView?
    ehelp24, 9/4/17
    • Hello, since version 5 Android Lollipop, WebView is a separate system component (and it is also available on Google Play). This component is used e.g. for web browsing. In Your case, WebView probably had been updated and therefore it was unavailable in the phone. Due to this situation, warning message was showed (the application without WebView can not run).
      You really do not need to install WebView (at the first run it was ok, so it was already installed). If the warning message appears at every launch of app, please contact us again.

      • Dear, also on the Nougat 7.1.2 the message "WebView Error" appears at every second and subsequent launch of your app. This is very frustrating for me. Have you any idea? ehelp24, 20/11/17
