After trying different browsers on android I found Privacy Browser to be what I need. It have encrypted backups,Domain settings,jsless by default,Deleting all site data and Most usable UI. Only issue is It is based on webview and I am using system default webview as my device is nonrooted so how secure is to go this way?

    That depends on the ROM/OS. Granted, we’re in the Android community, but GrapheneOS uses a hardened rendering engine, and never Chrome’s/Android’s even if you install them both from the Play Store:

    WebView-based browsers use the hardened Vanadium rendering engine, but they can’t offer as much privacy and control due to being limited to the capabilities supported by the WebView widget. For example, they can’t provide a setting for toggling sensors access because the feature is fairly new and the WebView WebSettings API doesn’t yet include support for it as it does for JavaScript, location, cookies, DOM storage and other older features. For sensors, the Sensors app permission added by GrapheneOS can be toggled off for the browser app as a whole instead. The WebView sandbox also currently runs every instance within the same sandbox and doesn’t support site isolation.
