What browser engine does Android use for phonegap?

Question

I\'m trying to implement some CSS animations in a phone gap project. The animations run fine on an iOS device but not on my Android. In fact some things like dashed borders

Answer 1

Take care because since version 4.4 (only) Android does use a Chromium based webview (I think before it was simply a webkit-based webview).

The WebView prior to 4.4 has a bad reputation as far as I've read.

This is another reason to use the Crosswalk project which has a Cordova plugin and permits to embed a specific version of Chromium, so that all your apps are using the same WebView engine no matter the SDK (a a cost of a big APK)
