I have a new LG G5 with Nougat 7.0 - webview is listed as disabled in the Play Store but isn't on the settings list of disabled apps. I can't enable it. Should I be able to? There doesn't seem to be a way to uninstall/reinstall it. Do I have a problem?

After Nougat the System Webview is not a separated app anymore and it's included in Chrome. There's a trick, using the developer options, to change the Webview provider.

You have to disable Google Chrome browser and to install Chrome beta.after that you'll have your webview working again
