what do you mean by secure, as far as "is it safe to use this browser" then yes, webview is reasonably secure, it's still running chrome. you have all of the security benefits and everything else, wont have to worry too much about malware or anything else. however if you mean by private then well, it's chrome. everything that sketches people out about chrome is all there too
So will it send tracking info to google?
