do websockets work in mobile apps without connecting to a browser?

I am writing an app in native html/css/javascript which has to work on almost every main mobile platform. I am using websockets for client-server communication.
I have tested on pc and it works perfectly, but i do not know if it works on mobile devices(iphone,android, etc) without using a browser.

CanIUse.com is a great site for this type of question.

Sadly, websockets are not implemented on Android. There may be a plugin for PhoneGap Android but I have not used one.
