Commenting on the matter, tech giant Google confirmed to The Verge that there is an issue with WebKit and the company is currently working on a fix.

This is a temporary fix

If your Android smartphone is also facing the app cashing issue, there’s a workaround until Google issues a fix. All you need to do is remove the WebView update and restart your smartphone. Here are the steps to be followed:

-First, open the settings menu
