Comment on Meta AI App built with Llama 4parent

Comments

There is SCSafariController, and even Android has CustomTabs API for private in-app browsers. It's just very inconvenient for Meta/Facebook.

WebView is very useful for UIs. You're probably using it more than you know in the "native" apps.

I’ve never worked on iOS apps before, but after writing my comment I looked into it. Yes, I absolutely use WebView all the time without knowing it.

Still, would be cool if I had a setting for each app that allows forcing opening 3rd party URLs in Safari, and not WebView, if that is feasible.
