I just learned about and tested OSM Go and there's not even a Chromium based browser required as I see it.

closes and shows toast message:

please install chrome stable 72 or later

edit: newer version works with other brothers ...

still the point was to use bromite instead of chrome for webe apps which ask for chrome

Guys, I cannot install Bromite System Webview. I follow the manual on github but after reboot nothing appears in Settings->Developer options->Webview Implementation....it is blank....if I install Webview from playstore, it appears there but not Bromite Webview. OS is Lineage 14.1 (7.1.2). Any ideas how to fix it?

Guys, because if I install Bromite, I'm going to settings> about> second line the name of the gold device that is not mine appears!

Do you understand my question? My phone is a Xiaomi mi 9 TPro and there is another model of another brand!

It is normal? It's okay?

Bromite conceals device model and browser version via fixed user agent. So it's normal and one of bromite's feature.

Ok. Thank you very much for answering! Regards!

 

[_Switch_On]

Fingerprinting and webgl option in chrome://flags toogling to enable (leaking browser fingerprinting) everytime after updating bromite browser. Luckly, there is reset button. Is it just me or anyone experience same issue?

@csagan5 it looks like the YouTube background playback feature broke in the latest release, it was working fine a couple of versions ago (iirc).
It was quite handy, (maybe not privacy related but...)

Did something change related to SSL certificates? I can't access any website with an invalid certificate anymore, there's no option to ignore the warning.

Were you able to get around this? I have a lan only server with self signed certificate and can't access the site

Seems like Bromite Webview does not work on Android 10

I tried this on followmsi's Lineage 17 build (20191107) for Pixel C. For some reasons Bromite WebView would not register on Android Q. It will not show up in the available WebView implementations list. This is tested using both NanoDroid BromiteWebView module (22.5, which is already aware of the new path) as well as replacing the apk manually in the system/product/app.

Not sure whether it's compatible now or not, as I tested this only a few weeks ago (when the Lineage 17 build I mentioned just came out). If the problem is not on your end, I'll look into Android Q's source to see what might have caused it, and if the Lineage 17 build in question might be causing it, I'll report the issue there instead.
