How to cache WebView content in Android?

Question

In my Android app I need to cache the (already loaded) content of WebView on pause and then restore it on resume. I wonder how can I do this?

Answer 1

It is cached automatically unless you disable. Nothing special needs to be done.

A common problem is that badly designed parent resets the view itself in methods like onStart or onResume , forcing to reload the contents. You need to be careful with the view in these methods, it may already with content.
