BackForwardCacheSettings

@WebSettingsCompat.ExperimentalBackForwardCacheSettings
class BackForwardCacheSettings

A class for developers to configure the back-forward cache on a android.webkit.WebView.

The back-forward cache is a browser feature that improves the user experience by keeping pages alive for a limited time after the user navigates away from them. If the user navigates back or forward, the page is reused for a fast back navigation.

Example: 

WebSettingsCompat.setBackForwardCacheSettings(
        webView.getSettings(),
        new BackForwardCacheSettings.Builder()
                .setTimeoutInSeconds(600)
                .setMaxPagesInCache(10)
                .build());
