This allows for dynamic interactions and\n updates within the `WebView`.\n\n- **Interact with your app** : This is where `WebView` gets more powerful. It\n enables bidirectional communication between the web page and the app.\n\n - **JavaScript to app code** : JavaScript code running in a `WebView` can call\n host APIs of the app, enabling access to device features like camera, GPS,\n or sensors.\n\n - **App code to JavaScript** : The app can also inject JavaScript code into a\n `WebView`, manipulate the web page's content, or respond to events triggered\n by the web page.\n\nHow `WebView` differs from a browser\n\nA `WebView` is a highly custom component that provides the core functionality of\na window into the web. Unlike a browser, which provides a navigation bar and\nother user interface elements to navigate the web more broadly, the overall\nexperience of a `WebView` is shaped by your app's design and purpose.\n\nTo better understand how `WebView` differs from standard browsers, see the\nfollowing explanations:\n\n**UI** : A `WebView` is used for displaying web content and doesn't have its own\nheader or UI like most other common browsers, for example, a home button,\naddress bar, or settings menu.\n\n**Features**: Many browsers have built-in features to augment the\nbrowsing experience, such as bookmarks, permissions, or history.\n\n**Updates** : Because Android `WebView` is a system service on Android, updates\nare pushed and integrated into the apps automatically on a monthly basis.\nBrowsers rely on their corresponding app updates and then for end users to apply\nthe update on their devices.\n\nGet started\n\nFor information on how to use `WebView` in your app, see the document\n[Build web apps in `WebView`](/guide/webapps/webview).\n\nAdditional resources\n\nTo develop web pages for Android-powered devices using `WebView` objects or\nCustom Tabs, see the following documents:\n\n- [Build web apps in `WebView`](/guide/webapps/webview)\n- [Manage `WebView` objects](/guide/webapps/managing-webview)\n- [Support different screens in web apps](/guide/webapps/targeting)\n- [Debug web apps](/guide/webapps/debugging)\n- [Best practices for web apps](/guide/webapps/best-practices)\n- [Opt-in to `WebView` Beta](https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.google.android.webview)\n- [In-app browsing using embedded web](/develop/ui/views/layout/webapps/in-app-browsing-embedded-web)\n- [Overview of Android Custom Tabs](/develop/ui/views/layout/webapps/overview-of-android-custom-tabs)"]]
