How to enable cookies in android webview?
You should consider that
CookieManager.getInstance().setAcceptCookie(true);doesn't work from lollipop(API21) and above. You should check and use appropriate function for that case:
if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 21) { CookieManager.getInstance().setAcceptThirdPartyCookies(mWebView, true);} else { CookieManager.getInstance().setAcceptCookie(true);}
CookieManager.getInstance() is the CookieManager instance for your entire application.Hence, you enable or disable cookies for all the webviews in your application.
Normally it should work if your webview is already initialized:http://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/CookieManager.html#getInstance()
Maybe you call CookieManager.getInstance().setAcceptCookie(true); before you initialize your webview and this is the problem?
