Ratings and reviews

I haven't noticed any different from the original android web view than this one. they both work the same. so I haven't seen where this is supposed to be more advanced than the original.

Great diagnostic tool for testing and development. I swapped over to this version in my phone's developer settings to test how some embedded in-app browser pages and login screens handle upcoming Chromium changes. The daily updates are perfect for catching rendering bugs early. It can occasionally be a bit unstable, but that's exactly what you expect from a Canary build definitely a solid resource for advanced users.

The reason I decided to download this is to improve the functionality of Chrome canary. I have this WebView Canary working in tandem with Chrome Canary. When I choose to use Chrome by itself I change the WebView as well. I don't believe in incompatibility metrics. I choose the practical. I avoid the use of incompatible browsers and WebView versions. I have rated and reviewed Chrome Canary as well as Android System WebView Canary.
