WKWebView doesn't apply User-Agent configuration

    XMLWordPrintableJSON

Details

    Description

      config.xml contains 

      <preference name="AppendUserAgent" value="something/version"/>

      This is properly used for Android (cordova-android 5.1.1), but not with iOS+WKWebView (cordova-ios 4.1.1).

      The cause is actually "documented": CDVUserAgentUtil:setUserAgent says that the default settings must be registered before the webview is actually instantiated. But, CDVViewController:viewDidLoad delays the call to setUserAgent until after the view has been created.

      AFAIR this worked with the UIWebView.
