Visit Flutter Plugin

Latest Version 2.0.9

A Flutter plugin that provides WebView access with permissions for location, file read/write, and more.

Getting Started

This plugin allows you to easily embed a WebView in your Flutter application while managing permissions for location access and file operations.

Installation

Add the following dependency in your pubspec.yaml file:

dependencies:
  flutter:
    sdk: flutter
  visit_flutter_sdk: ^2.0.10

iOS Setup

Open the ios/Runner/Info.plist file. Add the following permissions:

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
	<key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key>
	<true/>
</dict>
<key>NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription</key>
<string>We need access to your photo library for uploading images.</string>
<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>We need access to your camera for scanning QR codes.</string>
<key>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app requires access to your location while in use.</string>
<key>NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app requires access to your location even when not in use.</string>
<key>NSLocationAlwaysAndWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
<string>Your message explaining why the app needs location access.</string>
<key>NSHealthShareUsageDescription</key>
<string>We use Apple Health data to show your steps, distance, calories, and sleep insights.</string>
<key>NSHealthUpdateUsageDescription</key>
<string>We request Apple Health access to sync your fitness information with Visit.</string>

<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>
<array>
	<string>tel</string>
</array>

Add the HealthKit entitlement to your iOS target as well:

<key>com.apple.developer.healthkit</key>
<true/>

On iOS, the webview event CONNECT_TO_GOOGLE_FIT now triggers the Apple Health permission flow through the plugin. After access is granted, the plugin serves the same graph and daily fitness data callbacks used by the Android/web bridge.

Android Setup

1. Add these permission in Manifest.xml

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    
    

    <queries>
        <intent>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
            <data android:scheme="tel" />
        </intent>
    </queries>

2. Add your company's privacy policy URL inside the app-level android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml file, under the <application> tag. Android Health Connect uses this page when it shows the permission usage/rationale screen.

        <meta-data
            android:name="visit_flutter_sdk.health_connect_privacy_policy_url"
            android:value="https://your-company.example.com/privacy-policy" />

Replace the example value with your public privacy policy URL. The URL must be a valid https or http URL.

3. The plugin declares its own file-share provider for downloaded files, and Flutter should merge it into your app automatically. Do not add the old flutter_inappwebview_android provider for Visit SDK downloads.

   If your app has custom manifest merging and needs to declare the provider manually, use the Visit SDK provider below:

        <provider
            android:name="com.example.visit_flutter_sdk.VisitFlutterSdkFileProvider"
            android:authorities="${applicationId}.visit_flutter_sdk.fileprovider"
            android:exported="false"
            android:grantUriPermissions="true">
            <meta-data
                android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
                android:resource="@xml/visit_flutter_sdk_file_paths" />
        </provider>
