Hi @Connectall

More updates after some more digging and reorganizing. Unfortunately, there is a bug with how WebKit handles user agent, which is not letting Daily Prebuilt load in react native WebViews.

Sadly it’s beyond what I can impact with the components code. I’ve let the Daily team know, and they’ve confirmed and are working on a fix but I don’t have an ETA on that.

Wish I had a better update. The component should be disabled in the meantime and off the marketplace. It’ll be best to use a different solution for now.

Once it’s up and working again, I shall!

Ok. Thanks for the update.

私も”Adalo Webview"を利用して他のVideoソリューションを試しましたが、
Adalo Native(iOS and Android)ではうまく動作させることが出来ませんでした。
特にAdalo Androidには"onPermissionReques"と"grant"を受けつけることが出来ないため、
VideoChatを行うことは不可能でした。
Adalo開発チームが実装をしてくれたら嬉しいのですが・・
他にも問題はありそうですが、動作したら私は絶対にDaily.ioを利用します。

I also tried other video solutions using “Adalo Webview”, but I could not get it to work with Adalo Native (iOS and Android).
In particular, Adalo Android does not accept “onPermissionRequest” and “grant”, so it was impossible to do a VideoChat.
It would be great if the Adalo development team could implement this…
There may be other problems, but If it works I will definitely use Daily.io!

this.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() {
            @Override
            public void onPermissionRequest(final PermissionRequest request) {
                request.grant(request.getResources());
            }
});

Had similar issues but I resolved it by dropping a Pragamaflow Permissions Manager in a Webview window. Just to be clear, I did not use the native Video Chat by Daily Component. I used a Webview instead and in the webview I dropped the Permissions Manager in it which solved the permissions request issue.

Salut Salomon, peux tu le montrer en image. Aussi, est ce que tu réussi la mise en ligne

Hi Magloire, yes. please see the attached image. The App is available in both App Stores and it works.

Merci Salomon, J’essais ta méthode et je te fais un retour. Merci d’avance.

Hey @lunchpaillola

I am really interested in using the component if you have a test one or anything available!
I am a mobile app dev too so maybe I could help? Please lmk if I could test it and use it, thanks!

Hi @kwikds!

The updated version is currently in Adalo’s review queues, so once they approve it you’ll be able to access it! I’ll absolutely let you know when it’s live.

Hi @lunchpaillola,

Quick question, does this component allow for Live Streaming? In the component, there is a setting option for only the party with the owner token to display video and audio. I suppose that’s a quasi-Live stream but essentially it’s just a video chat (WebRTC) limiting participants from sharing their camera and audio and doesn’t necessarily require an encoder/decoder. I ask this question for a few reasons, the important consideration being pricing. Audio/video is charged by the minute based on the number of users, however, the first 10,000 minutes are free. Whereas Live streaming is pay-as-you-go from minute 1. Any clarification would be helpful. Thx!

Hi @OP_AD, the component doesn’t currently support live streaming just video chat, so you will have the 10,000 free minutes, not the pay-as-you-go from minute 1

Thanks, @lunchpaillola I figured as much. What was confusing was a YouTube video out there that referred to your component as live streaming so it was a bit confusing.

I spent some time on Daily.co this morning. Pretty much figured out how to use their API to launch a Live experience in Adalo. I just need to build it out. They have great documentation so it’ll be pretty easy and straightforward.

I’m really keen on doing an in App stream. And thinking similar to you - use the chat as it’s only a private sports league.

Wonder, from reading are you able to add overlays etc into the chat that can be dynamic ? Not a big issue if not but would be great

Seems possible. Daily.co offers enhanced emoticon features through its chat function. Seems to me it’s only a matter of enabling the feature to get overlay emoticons.

You could do that if you built a custom component. Here’s more about building custom interfaces with Daily with code.

The Adalo Daily component, however, does not currently support custom interfaces.

Ah, glad you figured it out! I wonder if that video might have been for the Bubble plugin? The Bubble plugin does include live streaming. The Adalo component, however, does not have that ability.

It appears to me that the presenter was using Adalo. Seems he was a bit confused about the component though as he had trouble setting it up appropriately at first. Add Live Streaming To Your No Code App using Daily.co Plugin (Adalo) - YouTube

As an aside, sometimes I do mull over if I should move my builds to Bubble but I have 2 years or more invested in Adalo. At this point, I’ve found workarounds for all the performance issues through better design, user journey mapping, conditional logic, and business logic. While I see the complaints from time to time, I notice that the most significant issue newbies have with performance is a lack of design experience and implementing the best logic to make up for Adalo’s platform limitations.

Oh, thanks for sharing! I understand the confusion there with live streaming but yep streaming to an external service is not available for this component currently.

Oh and totally understand, Adalo is a really useful service!
