ionic:// URL and localStorage

[joehui]

On iOS, is it normal that my root page has URL starting with ionic://localhost? I was expecting http://localhost?

I am having some issues with migrating localStorage from UIWebView. I suspect the ionic:// part is causing the data to not appear. I think localStorage is specific to protocol, host, and port.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Oh, I am using this plugin with cordova, not Ionic.

yes, it's normal, and yes, webview storage is tied to the scheme, origin, port, etc.

For migrating data, there are a few plugins that claim to do it, but didn't test any of them.
