Research direction

No files or tests are identified. Start by tracing how the repository renders its web view on Android and compare the cloned kiwix-android#4656 request. Define which views retain desktop rendering, add a user switch between desktop and Android modes, and verify both modes on Android.

Description

needs discussion question

@gouri-panda cloned issue kiwix/kiwix-android#4656 on 2026-02-06:

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently we're rendering our view as desktop view by default.
Describe the solution you'd like
We should render the web view as android view for our android users, also some views should seen as desktop view, so there should be an option to switch from desktop view to android view and vice versa.
