We have an application that contains a webview that uses html5 appcache api with a manifest file on the server.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_manifest_in_HTML5

The use of cache manifest is obsolete, reports chrome on the desktop.

[Deprecation] Application Cache API manifest selection is deprecated and will be removed in M82, around April 2020. See https://www.chromestatus.com/features/6192449487634432 for more details.

We need to know how long the appcache will continue to work, in an android webview.
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebSettings#setAppCacheEnabled(boolean)

It is safe to continue using the cache manifest in an android app? and if it is not, how much time do we have to adapt our application?
