Hi,

We use the Android WebView available through the device firmware, and so the revision is dependent on the device you’re using.

You should be able to see the Android WebView from the list of installed apps, or you can point Xibo to a layout containing one of the “what browser am I using” tools.

If you’re using a DSCS95/X:

| Device | Operating System | Browser Engine |
| --- | --- | --- |
| DSCS9X | Android 9 | Chrome for Android 85 |
| DSCS95 | Android 9 | Chrome for Android 99 |

Thanks,  
Dan

Hi Dan, thanks a lot. Would you please explain a bit more about the following which you wrote  
" or you can point Xibo to a layout containing one of the “what browser am I using” tools."

Create a layout with a web page widget on it, pointing to [https://www.whatsmybrowser.org/](https://www.whatsmybrowser.org/) and when that runs on your device it will reflect the web engine in use.
