Hello dominicdcruz93@, looks like you are using Android System WebView beta, thanks for being a beta user.

In Android N the WebView and Chrome packages were combined in order to reduce the update size for users. Updating Chrome also updates WebView. This means that in the Play store the WebView package will appear to be permanently disabled. The Play store WebView entry is only relevant for users with older operating systems, and users who have decided to disable Chrome.

If you need, or are being asked by an application, to update WebView, the action you should take now is to UPDATE CHROME. This should resolve any issues you are currently experiencing.

In order to continue to use WebView beta, you need to install Chrome beta and go to Developer options to choose Chrome beta as your WebView provider.
