Android Webview : know url redirection

Is there any method to know whether the url being loaded in the webview is either redirecting to any other page or not ?

E.g

  I have an Edittext where I search for "car" .Now , result page for "car" is 
 loaded in the webview below. In the result page , I click for wikipedia link.
 There, First url loaded is "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automobile" which 
  automatically gets redirected to "https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automobile".
 I want to know this redirection.

Actually , I want to find whether the url loaded in webview is redirecting or not.
 If it's redirecting ,then,I want to capture it and take some actions.

Thank you in advance.Any help would be great.

Yes, look at WebViewClient.onPageStarted(). When called (upon each redirection) you can get the url via the WebView view parameter: view.getUrl().
