Cordova Unable To Load Platformapi

I have been having this issue for few days now. Cordova won't run in browser, error says browser is not added as a platform. However, trying to add browser as a platform, cause ano

Solution 1:

Remove the platform which you try to run on it (browser, ios, android, and etc.)

cordova platform rm browser

Add the platform again

cordova platform add browser

You can run

cordova run browser

Solution 2:

It looks like the plugin PlatformApi (or what its name is exactly) is not supported by the browser platform.

You can not use the "cordova platform add browser" because the plugin was not written to work with the browser

Maybe it has some specific features that can not be emulated in the browser.

Solution 3:

For those who's still experiencing this issue in latest ionic and cordova versions. Run:

1. ionic cordova platform rm browser/android/ios
2. ionic cordova run --emulator

Solution 4:

Goto Your android studio -> tools -> android -> Sdk manager -> Sdk platform and update Android 7+ and 8+

And then run

cordova platform rm browser
cordova platform add browser
