Are you referring to apps having their own browser view (I.e., the app opens a webpage within the app itself instead of bumping you off to the browser)?

If so, this is perfectly normal and the way it is designed to work. I think the purpose is to not require you to flip backwards and forwards between the app and your web browser.

You must be referring to Safari View Controller, one of the best things to have come along with iOS 9 that finally made app built-in browsing bearable.

That is the point, to render web content using the native Safari webkit (or Chrome in Android) inside of an app without A. bouncing you out of the app and into the browser or B. using a crappier rendering engine that must be kept to up to date by the developer and C. having a slightly different browsing UI for each app.
