Issue descriptionTHIS TEMPLATE IS FOR FILING BUGS ON THE ANDROID SYSTEM WEBVIEW. GENERAL WEB BUGS SHOULD BE FILED USING A DIFFERENT TEMPLATE! Device name: Galaxy Note 4 Android version: 6.0 1 WebView version (from system settings -> Apps -> Android System WebView): 61.0.3 Application: FlipBoard Application version: most recent and earlier versions too. If I use the view on web option, app opens the article in Chrome and there's no page flip but customary scroll. I downgraded WebView to 60.0.3 and the flip is working again in latest FlipBoard version from Google Play. URLs (if applicable): Steps to reproduce: (1) Update WebView; test FlipBoard page flip. Didn't flip to page two but flipped to related articles instead. (2) clear data for FlipBoard: still no page flip. Downgrade FlipBoard: still no page flip. (3) Downgrade WebView to last beta: FlipBoard now has successful page flip to page 2 and upwards. Expected result: Should not break FlipBoard page flip when updating WebView beta but that's what beta testing does sometimes. Please fix it before release. Actual result: Does not flip to page two but goes directly to related articles that would normally be found when flipping last page in FlipBoard.

Update to WebView, version 61.0.3163.60, tested today still has the same effect as in attachment inside the FlipBoard application. FlipBoard hasn't worked right since WebView Version 60.0.3112.97 for me. Last 2 beta WebView updates flip past the remaining pages to related articles rather than flipping through the pages of the articles, where multiple flip pages are available. Other articles that only require scrolling can be read but the flip pages don't work after WebView update above.

Same behavior noted with latest FlipBoard update 4.1.0 I reverted beck to WebView version com.google.android.webview_60.0.3112.97-311209700_minAPI21(armeabi-v7a)(nodpi) and as before, FlipBoard pages with flips now flip to page 2 and up as expected. If you're reading this and can confirm, press star the issue and confirm it.

brotony00@, not all articles are flipping, most of them are just scrolling up and down like a normal webpage, is there a better way to find the special flipping article? Maybe FlipBoard is doing some tests so some of users got flipping and others got scrolling? satyavathir@, once the user replied an easier way to repro, could testing team do a per-CL bisecting? Thanks! I can repro this with Nexus 5X with Android M with WebView 62.0.3198.0 and 61.0.3163.60, can not repro this with 60.0.3112.113

@ctzsm@chromium.org The articles are dependent upon how FlipBoard packages and serves them. Sorry that it's a lottery pick as to which articles flip; it takes a little time. I do thank you for verifying the older WebView beta apk did not induce this while the latest ones do. I appreciate the assigning of issue to whomever did so. Please take the time and care to duplicate the issue by searching for a flip article. FlipBoard finally responded in auto reply but have yet to reply in person via email support. I'm confident the issue will be fixed and I'll look for a letter update to test. Thank you

WebView beta version 61.0.3163.72 still causes FlipBoard flip pages to skip page(s) 2 and up on page flip articles. Reverted back to WebView version 60.0.3112.97 and page flip works again.

battun@, is that possible to do a per-CL bisecting? Thanks!

Just tested beta WebView version 61.0.3163.81 against latest FlipBoard install on my Marshmallow ROM that failed before. I see pages flipping again. I think it's resolved. Will update if fails soon. Otherwise, maybe you can close this.
