I am working on an app which uses Android API 28, but I am having an issue with the app not always recognizing that the phone has internet access. However, other apps on the phone is working. The function I used to check the internet connection is:
fun checkInternetConnection(): Boolean { val connectivityManager = getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE) as ConnectivityManager val networkInfo = connectivityManager.isDefaultNetworkActive return networkInfo } Use this code
fun hasNetwork(context: Context): Boolean { var isConnected: Boolean = false val connectivityManager = context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE) as ConnectivityManager val activeNetwork: NetworkInfo? = connectivityManager.activeNetworkInfo if (activeNetwork != null && activeNetwork.isConnected) isConnected = true return isConnected } Also give permission in menifest
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" /> Did you give permissions in manifest?
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
