# ServiceWorkerWebSettings

*** ** * ** ***

` public abstract class ServiceWorkerWebSettings `   
` extends https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Object ` ` `

|---|---|
| [java.lang.Object](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Object) ||
| ↳ | android.webkit.ServiceWorkerWebSettings |

<br />

*** ** * ** ***

Manages settings state for all Service Workers. These settings are not tied to the lifetime of any WebView because service workers can outlive WebView instances. The settings are similar to `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebSettings` but only settings relevant to Service Workers are supported.
