The “Android System WebView error” usually indicates problems with Android devices not displaying web content properly within apps. Android System WebView is a system component used to show web pages inside Android applications.

What is Android System WebView Error?

Android System WebView works like Chrome, enabling web content display within apps. If this component is outdated, corrupted, or malfunctioning, apps may crash, freeze, or show errors when opening web pages.

Sometimes the issue is app-related. Uninstalling and reinstalling the app may fix it, or contact the app developer.
