I had a similar problem with using `@awesome-cordova-plugins/in-app-browser` in my Ionic Capacitor app. It would open the native device browser outside of the app. It was a silly misunderstanding on my part: `"@awesome-cordova-plugins/in-app-browser"` is just a TypeScript wrapper for `cordova-plugin-inappbrowser` so I had to `npm i --save cordova-plugin-inappbrowser` The official docs for` @awesome-cordova-plugins` (https://danielsogl.gitbook.io/awesome-cordova-plugins/in-app-browser) indicates running these commands to install it: ``` $ ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-inappbrowser $ npm install @awesome-cordova-plugins/in-app-browser ``` However, when using Capacitor, the `cordova plugin add` command is rejected: ``` [ERROR] Refusing to run ionic cordova plugin inside a Capacitor project. In Capacitor projects, Cordova plugins are just regular npm dependencies. - To add a plugin, use npm i cordova-plugin-inappbrowser - To remove, use npm uninstall cordova-plugin-inappbrowser ``` This is because Capacitor just uses npm dependencies + `cap sync` to manage plugins. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
