The issue with Web Serial is it's not available for Android. Because for some dumb reason, android apps can't access /dev/ttyUSBx, even if kernel exposes them. But then can access raw USB devices. That's really weird. But if you need to access USB serial device in an android, you need to implement FTDI proprietary protocol or whatever adapter you're using by hand.
