Android WebView is a system component for the Android operating system (OS) that allows Android apps to display content from the web directly inside an application.
Simply put, Android WebView allows apps to display web content, without having to open a web browser. Up to Android 6, WebView was a system service. Then, with Android 7.0, Google incorporated that functionality into the default Chrome Browser.
WebView is a view that display web pages inside your application. You can also specify HTML string and can show it inside your application using WebView. WebView makes turns your application to a web application. This method specifies the WebView has a back history item.
Use 10.0.2.2 instead. This is a special ip address that the emulator routs to local host on your dev machine. assuming that emulator and the webserver are running on the same machine.

Make sure you are loading WebView with full Urls.
http://www.google.com http://10.0.2.2/ and not:
www.google.com google.com All of these will work while using Browser, but you must supply a full valid url for WebView. Banged my head against the keyboard for an hour figuring that out.
If you're having connectivity issues in the emulator, try overriding the dns in the build path.
