May 6, 2016 at 22:37 comment added Mikhail Naganov @Vic There is a testing page that lists different test URLs for Chrome on different platforms: testsafebrowsing.appspot.com The first two links are for Chrome for Android. Safe browsing feature is definitely there.
Apr 22, 2016 at 17:11 comment added Mikhail Naganov Yeah, there seems to be something different about mobile versions of Chrome and Firefox. I tried testing with the special test URLs that work with desktop Chrome, but they don't work with Chrome for Android. Special Firefox test URLs also don't seem to work with Firefox on Android either. There is a bug on the Chrome bug tracker about this: crbug.com/438613, let's see what they will say. But Chrome, Firefox and even Safari are supposed to use the same Safe Browsing service: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Safe_Browsing, so that's... interesting. Thanks for raising up this issue!
