7 tips to lock your smartphone to protect against phone theft
If you really want to protect your phone, it's time you started locking your phone to prevent theft as well as protect it from hacks and scams.
Android smartphones appear to be suffering from a nasty bug that causes apps to crash frequently. According to a Reddit post, the issue seems to primarily affect some high-end Samsung phones like the Samsung Galaxy S21 . The issue appears to be related to Android System Webview, which comes pre-installed on Android phones and is used to display web content, such as in-app web browsers.
Latest Update: Google has updated the new version of Android System WebView
A new update for Android System Webview is available on the Play Store. Version 89.0.4389.105 fixes the issue where the app crashes and fails to open. You can search for the update on the Play Store. Users are also encouraged to update to the latest version of the Chrome web browser.
So anyone experiencing the issue, whether it's on a Samsung Galaxy phone or another brand, is encouraged to uninstall the Android System Webview updates. You can do this by searching for it in the Play Store and selecting "Uninstall," which should fix the issue. If that option isn't available for some reason, you can follow the same steps in your device's settings.




If you’re using a Samsung Galaxy phone, go to Settings > Apps > Android System Webview, then tap the three-dot menu near the top of the page and choose to uninstall the update, confirm, and restart your device. The process is more or less the same as any other Android smartphone. If you can’t find Android System Webview, select the “all apps” view and the feature should appear.
It's important to note that you're only uninstalling updates and not disabling the system-wide WebView, as this could cause issues with other apps. If this doesn't work, you may need to uninstall updates to the Chrome browser on your device, as apps are updated together, but this only applies to devices below Android 10.
