Hi, with the Hexnode Browser, is it possible to set Chrome flags like InsecureContentAllowedForUrls so I can enable / disable certain features?

@liam_t , no, you cannot directly set Chromium flags (like InsecureContentAllowedForUrls) in the Hexnode Browser. 

The Hexnode Browser does not expose internal Chromium flags for administrative control. 

If your goal is to allow insecure content for specific URLs, the recommended approach is to use Google Chrome and manage it via Android Enterprise Managed Configurations. 

Here’s how that works: 

First, make sure devices are enrolled in Android Enterprise (Device Owner mode). 

Then: 

  • Step 1: Add Chrome as a Managed App 

    1. Go to Apps > +Add Apps > Managed Google Play App 
    2. Search for Google Chrome 
    3. Approve it 
    4. Sync the repository
       
  • Step 2: Configure the Exception via App Configurations 

    1. Go to Policies 

    2. Create or edit a policy 
    3. Navigate to App Management > App Configurations 
    4. Click + Add new configuration 
    5. Select Google Chrome

In the configuration schema, look for: 

Origins or hostname patterns for which restrictions on insecure origins should not apply 

Add your required URLs, for example: 

[*.]example.com   

Save the policy and associate it with the required devices. 

This achieves the same outcome as modifying the Chromium flag, but through supported enterprise policy control instead of internal browser flags.
