if you have multiple webview  localstorage does not work correctly  two suggestion      using java database instead webview localstorage that    Guillaume Gendre   explained  of course it does not work for me    local storage work like json so values store as  key value   you can add your browser unique id to it s key and using normal android localstorage

If your app use multiple webview you will still have troubles   localStorage is not correctly shared accross all webviews   If you want to share the same data in multiple webviews the only way is to repair it with a java database and a javascript interface   This page on github shows how to do this   hope this help

setDatabasePath   method was deprecated in API level 19  I advise you to use storage locale like this   webView getSettings   setDomStorageEnabled true   webView getSettings   setDatabaseEnabled true   if  Build VERSION SDK INT  lt  Build VERSION CODES KITKAT        webView getSettings   setDatabasePath   data data     webView getContext   getPackageName       databases
