ionic 1 check internet when app is working

I try to check if internet is working when I run the app. It works well on my computer but after compiling apk and running the app on my smartphone, this code doesn't work properly; could you help me ?

.run(function($window, $rootScope) {
	console.log($cordovaNetwork.getNetwork());
	$rootScope.online = navigator.onLine;
	$window.addEventListener("offline", function() {
		$rootScope.$apply(function() {
			$rootScope.online = false;
		});
	}, false);
	$window.addEventListener("online", function() {
		$rootScope.$apply(function() {
			$rootScope.online = true;
		});
	}, false);
})

regards

You can Use cordova network Plugin(Cordova Network Plugin). Use can use the code below

.run(function($ionicPlatform, $ionicPopup) {
  $ionicPlatform.ready(function() {

    // Check for network connection
    if(window.Connection) {
      if(navigator.connection.type == Connection.NONE) {
        $ionicPopup.confirm({
          title: 'No Internet Connection',
          content: 'Sorry, no Internet connectivity detected. Please reconnect and try again.'
        })
        .then(function(result) {
          if(!result) {
            ionic.Platform.exitApp();
          }
        });
      }
    }

  });
})

Its not good practice to use navigator.onLine on Android devices. Each device uses different version of Chromium and on some devices it will not work as expected.

I suggest you to use org.apache.cordova.network-information plugin that calls native API for network information (advantage)
