Glitch

I am losing my mind trying to pass the third step. I insert this (i believe I followed the instructions) 

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.webkit.WebView;

public class WebViewActivity extends Activity {

    protected String mUrl;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_web_view);

        WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView1);

        // Add code here!
      Intent intent=getIntent();
      Uri passed=intent.getData();
      String mUrl;
      mUrl=passed.toString();
    }
}

Sorry for your trouble! You have redefined mURL, which isn't allowed:

protected String mUrl;

Just delete this:

String mUrl;
