on Android
Google has released an updated version of Chrome 79 for Android. The version fixes the bug in WebView, which caused data loss issues for apps that used the rendering component.
Google reassures in the release notes of Chrome 79.0.3945.93 for Android that the app data was not deleted, only simply not visible in external apps that use WebView. The update makes the data visible again.
Earlier this week, Google was forced to pause the update to version 79 of Chrome on Android after it turned out that apps using the WebView extension no longer showed any data. The problem turned out to be the non-migration of local storage, WebSQ and journal files for cookies and QuotaManager. Google developers pointed out to developers the existence of beta versions, which could have exposed the bug.
Other changes to Chrome 79.0.3945.93 on Android are that the browser will now warn you if an entered password has been leaked before. There is also support for the WebXR Device api for vr on the web and from now on favorites can be changed places in the list.
