Steps to Reproduce

  1. I am using the WebViewScaffold to launch a URL. This approach works fine on Android and the page is loaded. However, on iOS, it gives a white blank screen.
  2. Followed all the steps mentioned in the documentation and the key "NSAppTransportSecurity" is added to the Info.plist file as recommended in the documentation.
  3. The iOS app launches the URL and works fine if we use an instance of the FlutterWebViewPlugin to call the "launch()" method instead of the WebViewScaffold implementation.
  4. There are no errors logged on the console while running it.
  5. Here is the code that renders the view inside a StatefulWidget
...
return SafeArea(
      child: WebviewScaffold(
        url: _url,
        mediaPlaybackRequiresUserGesture: false,
        useWideViewPort: true,
        appCacheEnabled: true,
        geolocationEnabled: true,
        invalidUrlRegex:
     r'^(https:\/\/api\.whatsapp\.com|https:\/\/apps\.apple\.com|https:\/\/play\.google\.com|tel:|mailto:|https:\/\/www\.facebook\.com|https:\/\/www\.youtube\.com|https:\/\/www\.instagram\.com)',
        debuggingEnabled: true,
      ),
    );
