It should be noted that the WebView_LoadCompleted event has been deprecated & is/will be obsolete. It may not be available after Windows 8.1 so you should use the NavigationCompleted event instead.

private void myWebView_NavigationCompleted(WebView sender, WebViewNavigationCompletedEventArgs args)
    {    
        string myUrl = sender.Source.ToString();    
    }

Another idea would be to use InvokeScript and get the info from the document using javascript. Something like:

var url = await myWebView.InvokeScriptAsync("eval", new String[] { "document.location.href;" });

Hope it helps someone.

There's no direct property. You have to use LoadCompleted event.

private void WebView_LoadCompleted(object sender, NavigationEventArgs e)
{
    System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(e.Uri.ToString());
}
