Really Strange

Question

Is the device motion API going to be removed?
Or some changes are there in the guidelines??

Prior to updating chrome, this API worked perfectly. Now, after updating it it only executes once and returns "null".

Same thing after updating Android System Webview.

It is to be noted that I did not change my phone.

Can anyone explain me whats happening?

Answer 1

EDIT: Another update fixed it.

Answer 2

@Kirk I don't have any codes using that API. I was planning to make one.

Answer 3

You have a lot of codes; if one of those uses the API could you link it so others can compare?

Otherwise, I could link mine but I can't access all my sensors (one of my devices is known to occasionally lie + I have independent Android) so I don't have tests everywhere.

Answer 4

Features to be removed:

Removed: look for the red (x):

Weirdly, I had to use Firefox to browse these​; Chrome wouldn't work :)

Answer 5

Thanks, I thought this was a little mysterious.
