Mull and Android WebView (sh.itjust.works)

for anyone using Mull on Android, since i'm using it that the webview i see in apps like Feeder seems to be using Mull, although when checking the implementation in Dev Options, it does look (from logo and name lol) like normal Chromium webview

screenshot of Feeder app showing Mull context window

what's really going on here, and how could i have properly checked it myself?

EDIT: vain attempts at posting inline image instead of link to hoster

EDIT2: thanks to noodlejetski@lemm.ee with the image thing (dumb me thought [] was that rectangle character you get in some fields where that character is not recognized ಠᴗಠ )

i'm on Android 13 also (vanilla LOS [ungoogled]) and it's the first version i'm running unrooted. i did once change webview to Bromite's, i think 2 or 3 Android versions ago, but on the next one i could not manage to change it again, so i'm stuck with the default

i'm glad these custom tabs are a thing now tho, since all the apps that i'm using that need some webbing seem to be 'powered by Mull' now
