Steps to Reproduce

Just run any application using flutter_webview_plugin version 0.4.0 after upgrading to Flutter 2.5 and you will get the warning message.

Logs

The plugin `flutter_webview_plugin` uses a deprecated version of the
Android embedding.
To avoid unexpected runtime failures, or future build failures, try to see
if this plugin supports the Android V2 embedding. Otherwise, consider
removing it since a future release of Flutter will remove these deprecated
APIs.
If you are plugin author, take a look at the docs for migrating the plugin
to the V2 embedding: https://flutter.dev/go/android-plugin-migration.

Jeison Florez · Answer 24 · Thu Oct 28 2021 00:09:15 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I also faced this problem, precisely when I resumed a flutter 2.4.0 project, apparently the plugin there is no compatibility with version 2.5.0. When running the flutter pub get command I received the error and I was able to solve it by running

`flutter downgrade`

This command returns flutter to version 2.2.1, which allows working with flutter_webview_plugin without problems.

When you need to work with the latest version of Flutter, you can run the flutter upgrade command and you will have the latest version instantly.

I hope this is also helpful while the package's developers solve the root problem.

just replace this legacy plugin with another one webview_flutter

Guillaume Roux · Answer 29 · Thu Dec 16 2021 21:04:55 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

just replace this legacy plugin with another one webview_flutter

While the plugin is legacy webview_flutter does not provide all the features from this package. Such as an easy way to listen to url changes for example.

While the plugin is legacy webview_flutter does not provide all the features from this package. Such as an easy way to listen to url changes for example.

WebView(
  initialUrl: widget.url,
  javascriptMode: JavascriptMode.unrestricted,
  navigationDelegate: (navigation) {
    // check link here
    return widget.webViewState.onCatchUrl(navigation.url);
    },
    onPageFinished: (url) {
      setState(() {
        this._loaded = true;
      });
    },
),

Guillaume Roux · Answer 31 · Thu Dec 16 2021 22:13:34 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

WebView(
  initialUrl: widget.url,
  javascriptMode: JavascriptMode.unrestricted,
  navigationDelegate: (navigation) {
    // check link here
    return widget.webViewState.onCatchUrl(navigation.url);
    },
    onPageFinished: (url) {
      setState(() {
        this._loaded = true;
      });
    },
),

This is not a listener it is a delegate, this method is called before navigating to the url, while the listener onUrlChanged provided by this package would be called after the navigation. Might not make a huge difference most of the time but in a project I am working on this is important.

To support null safety, I created a fork with migration 0.4.0 version of the plugin on Android embedding v2.
You can use it like :

because you use this package aad_oauth which depends on flutter_webview_plugin older version so maybe your problem will stay until resolved by package maintainers, for me I've updated flutter_webview_plugin to use git source https://github.com/nuc134r/flutter_webview_plugin.git and my app can be built again.
