A deprecated GoogleChrome repository hosting examples and documentation for Chrome Custom Tabs, which lets Android apps open web content in a customized Chrome activity. It has been superseded by android-browser-helper and androidx.browser.
Use cases
- open web links inside my android app without a webview
- customize the browser toolbar color when launching chrome from my app
- learn how to implement chrome custom tabs on android
- share browser cookies and session state with in-app web content
- migrate from custom-tabs-client to androidx.browser
- make external web pages feel like part of my android app
When to choose
- studying legacy custom tabs implementations or maintaining an old Android app already using it
When to avoid
- starting a new Android project - use androidx.browser or android-browser-helper instead
- using AndroidX or Jetifier, since this library has known runtime crashes with AndroidX
- needing maintained code or support - the repository is deprecated
