Crash on Samsung devices without webview (play services)

This line can throw on Samsung devices without Google Play Services installed (and only Samsung Browser).

I somehow fail to see how the exception handler wrapped around this does anything useful? It captures any exception to simply re-throws it? How is this supposed to be handled from the JS react side to not crash the app?
