Embedded webviews are the stupidest thing ever. Yesterday I got halfway through a checkout process, had to go back to another app to check something, and then the webview simply disappeared so I didn't bother finishing the checkout. This was on Android Usually I open it in Chrome but for some reason I didn't realize it was a webview this time | ||

I disable them on every app that lets me. It is in every way worse UX than simply opening the browser. | ||

God yes that. Our VPN client fell over the other day because the auth popup opens an embedded web browser which throws a javascript error as it's bouncing through our ID provider pages. How the fuck we got there I don't know. Everything is a gigantic Heath Robinson contraption. | ||
