[en] OWA strongly criticises In-App Browsers: "stifle innovation, trap users into apps ..."

"An In-App Browser can open when users tap on links in a non-browser app ... Rather than switching out of the app ..."

"Users are stuck with forgetful, subpar in-app browsers. Businesses struggle to reach and engage with audiences due to missing features and bugs in browsers that no one made an affirmative choice to use."

In-app browsers are bunk compared to full-featured browsing apps, but they’re also a major privacy and security risk. Many apps sneak data trackers onto websites you visit through their in-app browser using a method called Javascript injection, which adds extra code to a page as it loads. These trackers can scoop up browsing history, login data, and even keyboard presses and text entry.

While not always used for nefarious means, Javascript injection is a potential security threat that, until now, was difficult to check for inside in-app browsers. Luckily, security researcher Flix Krause’s new ap(p)tly named tool, InAppBrowser, checks if an app’s built-in browser uses potentially dangerous Javascript injections to track your data.

For it to detect anything though, you need to open this website from inside that app you want to test (by posting/mailing the link to yourself for that app).
