EDIT: This error is Webview overriding the default minimum font size. In my example, Webview sets the minimum font size to 8px somewhere. The solution is below :)
Android Webview rem devices scale to large. All rem modules look 8 times too big and inappropriate in Android Webview. The only rem tag that works correctly is font-size: 30rem; for text. Everything else seems to scale the path to the big. those. 100rem = 800px @ 1.0px. Oddly enough, after I skip 8.0px when scaling, the window starts to grow.
This example works in every browser that supports rem modules except Webview. Does anyone have an idea?
