Hi Michael, thanks for the reply!

Good catch: it does work outside of web app mode. This might be a good
starting point to debug it... I will follow your suggestion and file a bug
report.

Regards,
Andre

Well Fedora has a much more recent Epiphany than Ubuntu, so not <br>
surprising it might have broken between Ubuntu 18.04 and Fedora 29. <br>
This reminds me of <a href=3D"https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D=

but that fix predates either distro. I&#39;d more likely suspect the <br>
changes to how web apps work between 3.28 and 3.30. I would report an <br>
issue for it on <a href=3D"https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/issues" =
rel=3D"noreferrer" target=3D"_blank">https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphan=
y/issues</a>. Does it <br>
work outside of web app mode?<br>
<br>
If any developers have a Whatapp account and want to try bisecting it, <br>
that&#39;d be the easiest way to get it fixed.<br>
