Can Android apps use WebRTC, or is WebRTC only available in browsers?

If Android apps can use WebRTC, how can it be blocked per app or system-wide to prevent IP or network leaks?

    At least for firefox, you need to enable camera or microphone permissions in order to establish a webRTC connection.

    I2P recommends changing this setting in about:config media.peerconnection.ice.proxy_only: true. I’m pretty sure that it requires a TURN server for webRTC over a STUN server. This means that any webRTC connections require a central server to relay information to participants, instead of participants sending that information directly to each other.
