âš¡ï¸ Get started fast with the 3D WebViewPrefab or2D CanvasWebViewPrefab, whichrender to a Texture2D and handle user interactions (click,scroll, hover, drag)
📱 Includes a Native 2D Mode optimized formobile
âŒ¨ï¸ Type with the included on-screen keyboard or nativekeyboard
• C# source code for a unified API that works seamlesslyacross Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, WebGL, and UWP / Hololens
• Comprehensive API for controlling the browser and listening to browser events
• Execute JavaScript
• Send messages from JavaScript to C# and vice versa
• View PDFs
• Also includes extra platform-specific APIs

• Powered by the Android system WebView
Examples

â—¦ CanvasWorldSpaceDemo
â—¦ PopupDemo
• Oculus example (Quest, Rift)
• XR Interaction Toolkit example
• AR Foundation example
• Cardboard example
System requirements
• Unity 2017.3 or above
• Supports both Mono and IL2CPP
• Android 5+ (armv7, arm64, x86) with OpenGL graphics
Important notes and limitations
• This package only supports Android. To support other platforms, you can install additional 3D WebView packages (Windows and macOS, iOS, WebGL, UWP, or create a custom bundle). All of the 3DWebView packages work seamlessly together, so all you need to do is install them into the same project, and then 3DWebView automatically detects and uses the correct plugin at runtime and build time.
• 3D WebView's native Android plugins are provided as precompiled libraries, and the native source code for them is notprovided.
• 3D WebView's native Android plugins can't run in the editor, so a mock webview implementation is used by default whilerunningin the editor. However, you can actually load and render real web content in the editor by also installing 3D WebView for Windows and macOS into the project.
• If you're targeting Oculus headsets, then the 3D WebView for Android with Gecko Engine package isrecommended instead. For a comparison of these two packages, see the comparison page.
• This package supports Universal Render Pipeline (URP), but WebViewPrefab doesn't currently support the "SRP Batcher"option. So, when using URP, you must either disable SRP Batcher in URP settings or use CanvasWebViewPrefab instead ofWebViewPrefab.
• The Android plugin embeds PDF.js from Mozilla, so you must display a copy of its included Apache 2.0 licensein yourAndroid app's about page or credits.
