Joe Bowser updated CB-6033:
---------------------------
Priority: Major (was: Critical)
I'm not convinced that the data has been wiped entirely, since it may be
possible to recover the SQLite backing store the old browser was using somehow.
Hopefully the WebView didn't just delete this single file. There may be a
work-around, but I don't know if I can get buy-in for this due to the nature of
the bug.
> Android 4.4 update loses LocalStorage data
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-6033
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6033
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Android
> Reporter: Darryl Pogue
>
> This appears to be a result of the switch from old WebView to the new
> Chrome-powered WebView.
> If an app is installed in 4.3 and saves data to LocalStorage (and possibly to
> WebSQL) and then the device is updated to 4.4, that data appears to be lost.
> Some threads regarding the problem:
