What is 'android.webkit.SafeBrowsingResponse' error?

Question

I use webview in my activity.

I don't know when, but I get the following error message.

Even if I search for this, I don't have much information.

Although it is not a serious error, I would like to fix it so that I do not receive such a message.

If anyone knows how to fix it, I would like to get some advice.

This class is supported from API level 27 (Android 8.1). https://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/SafeBrowsingResponse.html Maybe update Chrome will help? — bjc, Apr 20 '18 at 09:03
@bjc before wrote this question, i saw this doc. but i couldnt understand why classnotfoundexception was thrown. i'm not having any problem from this, just want to know why. — 01hanst, Apr 21 '18 at 00:46
Do you use API level 27 (Android 8.1) for both your developing and running environment? — bjc, Apr 24 '18 at 02:07
What is the running environment? Do the solutions list in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43922288/ help? — bjc, Apr 26 '18 at 04:12
@bjc i've using samsung note8, galaxy s4, emulator momo. i can't remember where it happened over time. but this class is in API level 27. i think it caused in samsung note8. — 01hanst, Apr 27 '18 at 06:32
So I guess this problem is caused by the target API version is higher than the running environment. Set the target version to less than 27 should solve it. — bjc, Apr 27 '18 at 09:26
@bjc hmm...i think it can be solution. and...just...i dont know definite cause. i'll find another solution from your guess. thnak you — 01hanst, Apr 27 '18 at 12:54
@manjunathkallannavar No, I didn't find a solution. I didn't have time to find a solution. To avoid errors, we need to lower the version of the target. — 01hanst, Jun 21 '18 at 03:42

Solution for the problem is:

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
    view.getSettings().setSafeBrowsingEnabled(false);
}

WebSettings settings = view.getSettings();
settings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);

Let me know if this doesn't work for you.

Thanks for your opinion. I think, this code is similar work to set targetSDK version to low. – 01hanst Jul 03 '18 at 03:05
This solution doesn't work for compile SDK 28, target SDK 28, and min SDK 24. – Monte Creasor Jul 03 '18 at 04:17
The code actually works and we have it working in production! In API 28 and below also! The SDK doesn't actually work! And you can make the report to the Android Developers! Since they have managed to do something completely bad once again. Cheers – Niki Izvorski Jul 12 '18 at 07:23
How could it work?According to the log this error occurs inside of the constructor of super class. – KnIfER Apr 22 '19 at 07:37

For Kotlin. This might be useful for some one else

settings.javaScriptEnabled = true

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
    settings.safeBrowsingEnabled = true
}
