📱 WebApps
(Sandbox for webapps)
https://f-droid.org/app/com.tobykurien.webapps
Provide a secure way to browse popular webapps by eliminating referrers, 3rd party requests, cookies, cross-site scripting, etc.
It accomplishes this by providing a sandbox for multiple webapps (like Google's apps, Facebook, Twitter, etc.). Each webapp will run in it's own sandbox, with 3rd party requests (images, scripts, iframes, etc.) blocked, and all external links opening in an external default web browser (which should have cookies, plugins, flash, etc. disabled).
By default, all HTTP requests are blocked (only HTTPS allowed). This improves security, especially on untrusted networks. The app can also handle HTTPS links and open them in their own sandbox.
Based on GApps Browser.
📱 GApps Browser
(Sandbox for web apps)
https://f-droid.org/app/com.tobykurien.google_news
This app started out as a way to view Google News on the author's phone but now encompasses Google+, Google Maps etc. The idea is to be able to access the Google web apps without having to log into Google on your browser, so that you can browse privately. It is a good way to access the Google webapps if you have an AOSP-based ROM and reject the proprietary GApps. Also the webapps are less bandwidth and battery-hungry than their native counterparts.
Links to external sites (such as news articles, etc.) will be opened in a regular browser, thus keeping the Google authentication sandboxed in the app
