Webviews

Webviews let users follow links and view more content without leaving the context of where they found the initial information.

Types and Styles

Webview types:

  • Public: doesn't require login
  • Authenticated: users must log in to see content

You can configure webviews to load in three styles:

  • Full page within the app: The webview takes up the entire screen.
  • Inside a container: The app embeds the webview within a specific section or component of the UI.
  • In an external browser: The webview opens in the users' default web browser.

Webviews work best for loading content such as:

  • Locations: Maps or store finders.
  • Help & Legal: Support documentation and legal information.
  • Terms & Conditions (T&C): User agreements.
  • Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ): Common user queries.
  • Privacy Policy: Data privacy information.

When you implement webviews, we recommend that you enable light and dark mode, font scaling, and hide the website navigation for a safer and better user experience.
