I assume you're refering to the "file upload" widget? If not, what do you mean by "file input"? What sort of problem is occuring when you use this, the file upload widget is not visible on the display?

For what it's worth, the "normal" way to capture photos in a mobile app is to use the pui.capturePhoto() API, described at the following link. (Though, file upload should also work.)

How are you doing google maps? If you are using the Google Maps widget, I would suggest using an iframe widget instead. Google Maps is a 'custom widget" that we ship with the visual designer as a demonstration. However, for performance reasons, mobile apps don't find/download all of your custom javascript files by default. So if you want to use a custom widget like Google Maps, you'll need to explicitly load the JS file in your mobile app. But, I would recommend simply using an iframe widget instead. Honestly, the Google Maps widget doesn't do very much for you, it's really just an iframe where the URL is pre-set. If you make your own URL that points to Google Maps, the iframe widget will work fine, and does not require any custom widgets.

Yeah sorry I do not do refering to the "file upload" widget , I created a custom widget type file input a html5 tag, but you answered my question if i want to see my custom widget on mobile i need to add JS manually. Can you tell me how to explicitly load the JS file in mobile app ?

Thank you and sorry for my bad english.

Your display file has an "external Javascript" property. (It's one of the screen-level properties.) You can point this to a URL to your custom widget (or any other JavaScript file) to have it be loaded from your mobile app.
