I have a web app in which people can upload a file via <input type="file" ..> element. This works fine in all common browsers. Unfortunately my web app is reached via a qr-code link. most qr code scanner apps open the link in an in-app browser (webview) and in these the <input type"file" ..> button is not working. Is there a way to have a file upload, which works also in in-app browsers?

  • its not duplicate of this. I have no influence on the webviews of the various qr-code scanner apps around there – Markus Rollmann Apr 01 '19 at 18:52
  • What kind of "not working"? Which Android version, and by extension webview, are you targetting? – Ivan Rubinson Apr 01 '19 at 19:03
  • When clicking on "choose file" button nothing happens. My website is reached via a qr code. So must users (depending on which qr-code scanner app they use) see my website with the in-app browser of the qr-code scanner app. it doesnt work in any of these i think. – Markus Rollmann Apr 02 '19 at 07:39
