Upload web version of a website and not the mobile version in a WebView

To resolve this problem you must change the WebView User-Agent (UA). Reading the documentation of Xamarin's WebView, by default, if nothing is told it will based on the version of the device. Because you will create a UA based on a mobile version, the site recognizes and redirects to the mobile version. If you override the UA and say that you are "using" a computer, the site will not redirect.

An example code to change the UA:

public class SurveyWebViewClient : WebViewClient
        {
            public override bool ShouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, string url)
            {
                view.Settings.UserAgentString = "ua-string";
                view.LoadUrl(url);


                return true;
            }
        }

Where is UA-String you can use that of Google Chrome in Windows 7:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/47.0.2526.111 Safari/537.36

If you would like another UA, you can check this list .

[assembly:ExportRenderer(typeof(WebView), typeof(DesktopWebViewRenderer))]

public class DesktopWebViewRenderer : WebViewRenderer
{
    protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<WebView> e)
    {
        base.OnElementChanged(e);

        Control.Settings.UserAgentString = "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.4) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0";
    }
}
