Geolocation native plugin is blocked only locally by msg: Geolocation has been disabled in this document by Feature Policy

Ionic Framework ionic-v3

Hi all,

After a while I found time to continue my app.
An see, a lot of problems at code, which worked before :wink:

Following method, which worked before, throws me an error now:

this.geolocation.getCurrentPosition()

The error-message within the devtools-console of chrome is:

Geolocation has been disabled in this document by Feature Policy.

On the iPhone device everything works.

Does anybody have an idea?

Meanwhile I found out that the problem has something to do with the Cross-Origin Iframes: https://goo.gl/EuHzyv

If I use locally the Ionic default lab plattform, to see the different plattform (ios, android, windows), Ionic is
using an iframe to show the pages.

When I set the view to fullscreen it works, because it’s not using an iframe to present the pages within the simulated phone views.

Does anybody know, how I can access the Iframe (created by the Ionic Framework) within the DOM?

I am currently getting the same issue in all of my projects that use geolocation. Does anyone have a fix for this?
