    Google's Safe Browsing can now protect you from phishing attempts and harmful programs even if you're not visiting websites on Chrome. Google Play Protect has added Safe Browsing to WebView, the component that allows Android apps to display web content, by default. Since developers don't have to do anything to activate the feature, their apps will come integrated with the ability to warn you if you're visiting a URL with potentially malicious content.
