Android Webview - how to disable iframe or video playback?

Question

Android

Webview shows a website with information and an embedded YouTube video. It is necessary that the iframe is not shown to the user or that he cannot watch the video.
Video is shown anyway inside webview -> shouldOverrideUrlLoading only works for links...

Answer 1

The simplest way is to use loadUrl() to inject a JS script that will hide or remove the desired element.
