If I'm getting this right, you're planning on displaying some websites in a WebView in which you inject JS to modify the UI / add features?
Well, you totally can, I often do that on the desktop using Greasemonkey. Just be prepared for lost time whenever one of the websites introduce a breaking change.
We do this at work and we have basically a full time dev working on maintaining the code for just a few websites.
Thanks, I’ll check out grease monkey.
You are trying to run unauthorized bots on Facebook etc. Of course anything you do that annoys Facebook makes me happy, but they are constantly trying to block such bots, and it's a cat and mouse game. Keeping it reliable enough to support as a product may be a headache. Anyway it's called web scraping and there's a bunch of lore and products for it, like proxy access to rooms full of phones. The general flavor is something like SEO. A seedy atmosphere with lots of hucksters claiming to have their own secret tricks, but I think there aren't real mysteries..
If you don't want to use API, which API are designed specifically for this kind of thing, then you may have to use web scraping to do what you want.
Can I Develop An App Without API’s?
MainActivity.onCreate()... wup wup wup.

Unfortunately most tech companies don't allow messenger pigeon authentication so apis are necessary I'm afraid.
