Hello

Thanks for reporting the issue. Can you please let us know the Android version on your device?

If your device has Android 7.0, Android system Web view is disabled after 7.0 update.  In 7.0 chrome (monochrome) provides the webview functionality, and the webview package is disabled. If you disable chrome, webview will be enabled, and start receiving updates. 

Please let us know if this solves your issue.
Thanks.
