Best practice check list to make Android WebView Secure

Question

I am working on an application which is largely written in Native and supporting Ice Cream Sandwich. However, I need to add some WebViews. There are lots of discussions on W

Answer 1

As per doc,

To enable Safe Browsing for all WebViews in your app, add in a manifest tag:

<manifest>
     <meta-data android:name="android.webkit.WebView.EnableSafeBrowsing"
                android:value="true" />
      . . .
     <application> . . . </application> </manifest> 

Because WebView is distributed as a separate APK, Safe Browsing for WebView is available today for devices running Android 5.0 and above. With just one added line in your manifest, you can update your app and improve security for most of your users immediately.
