You can Use This Code, It Worked For me!!

Copy this code to inside OnCreate Method!! You can edit code according to your requirement.

webView.loadUrl(YOUR URL HERE);
webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webView.getSettings().setUseWideViewPort(true);
webView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient());
webView.getSettings().setUserAgentString("Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Win64; x64; rv:46.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0");
webView.getSettings().setGeolocationEnabled(true);
webView.getSettings().setDomStorageEnabled(true);
webView.getSettings().setDatabaseEnabled(true);
webView.getSettings().setSupportMultipleWindows(true);
webView.getSettings().setAppCacheEnabled(true);
webView.getSettings().setNeedInitialFocus(true);
webView.getSettings().setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true);
//webView.getSettings().setBlockNetworkLoads(true);
webView.getSettings().setBlockNetworkImage(true);
webView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
webView.setInitialScale(100);

Change the user agent of webview like

String newUA= "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.4) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0";
mWebView.getSettings().setUserAgentString(newUA);

Alternatively you can also change the settings without changing user agent

 webView = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.webView1);
 webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
 webView.getSettings().setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
 webView.getSettings().setUseWideViewPort(true);
 webView.getSettings().setSupportZoom(true);
 webView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
 webView.getSettings().setDisplayZoomControls(false);
 webView.setScrollBarStyle(WebView.SCROLLBARS_OUTSIDE_OVERLAY);
 webView.setScrollbarFadingEnabled(false);

You can try with changing user agent of your web view.

Example: 

String newUA= "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.4) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0";
 mWebView.getSettings().setUserAgentString(newUA);
