Web view control is generally used to open any URL within your application. Therefore you don't have to move to the other application like inbuilt browser, or chrome etc.
As per the
Documentation :
If you want to deliver a web application (or just a web page) as a part of a client application, you can do it using WebView.
See the example,
layout :
<webview xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
android:id="@+id/webview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"/>
</webview>
java :
WebView myWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
myWebView.loadUrl("http://www.example.com");
and last Manifest:
<manifest ...="">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" xmlns:android="#unknown" />
...
</manifest>
You can look at the
example[
^] as well. :)
