Xamarin Forms webview not displaying on device

$

Ive developing a webview app in Xamarin.Forms over the last few days and ive been testing it on an android and iOS emulator and it seems to work just fine in the emulators but when i went and tried to test it on my own Android device, it just showed the xamarin splashscreen(im using the trial version at the moment) and then just transitioned to a blank white screen instead of the webview.

Does anyone have any ideas why it is doing this?

I will attach my code below:
App.cs

using Xamarin.Forms;

namespace WebViewApp
{
    public class App() : Application
    {
        public App()
        {
            // The root page of your application
            MainPage = new WebPage();
        }

        protected override void OnStart()
        {
            // Handle when your app starts
        }

        protected override void OnSleep()
        {
            // Handle when your app sleeps
        }

        protected override void OnResume()
        {
            // Handle when your app resumes
        }
    }
}

WebPage.cs

using Xamarin.Forms;

namespace WebViewApp
{
    public class WebPage : ContentPage
    {
        private const string URL = "https://www.google.com";
        private const int PADDING_WIDTH = 0;

        private int paddingHeight;

        private WebView webView;

        public WebPage()
        {
            webView = new WebView
            {
                Source = URL,
                VerticalOptions = LayoutOptions.FillAndExpand,
                HorizontalOptions = LayoutOptions.FillAndExpand
            };

            CheckDevice();

            Content = new StackLayout
            {
                Padding = new Thickness(PADDING_WIDTH, GetPaddingHeight()),
                Chrildren = { webView }
            };
        }

        public int GetPaddingHeight()
        {
            return paddingHeight;
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// This will set the padding height for the webview when displayed
        /// <summary>
        /// <param name="pHeight">Set integer value for the padding height.</param>
        public void SetPaddingHeight(int pHeight)
        {
            paddingHeight = pHeight;
        }

        private void CheckDevice()
        {
            if(Device.OS == TargetPlatform.Android)
            {
                SetPaddingHeight(0);
            }
            else if(Device.OS == TargetPlatform.iOS)
            {
                SetPaddingHeight(20);
            }
        }
    }
}

*** UPDATE ***
I am using a company website but I have been testing this app out with a number of different sites such as google, youtube, and amazon. It would seem that the only site that wont display on my device is my companies website(its a responsive website) but all of the others do.
