the js was enabled, but after a research figured out that WebChromeClient should be created too. For anyone who is/will be wondering the same thing:
mywebView=(WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
mywebView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient());
mywebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
mywebView.loadUrl("https://example.com/");
WebSettings webSettings=mywebView.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webSettings.setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true);
webSettings.setDomStorageEnabled(true);
Have a nice day
