Webview issues

TazTheKitsune — Wed, 22 Apr 2026 07:56:11 GMT

After investigating issues with Microsoft applications and access to emails, the current version of Android System Webview is at the root of the issue affecting a few users.

Outlook for example no longer load emails or fails to open links.

Microsoft authenticator, fails to open completely.

Didnt manage to test other applications. But the issue was defenitely affecting the phone.

Samung, or google, please fix your Android system Webview. As it stops working properly after a while. The only fix is restarting the phone or for a more permanent fix uninstall the application itself to fix it.

If anyone else have that issue, and need to know how to do my fix i would be happy to guide. But its a Samsung issue that more people should be talking about and have them fix.

Thank you.

Microsoft Outlook in Android app is closing down soon according to various sources in tech sites but that's a Microsoft issue not a Samsung problem .
