Description
Currently, only a web site keys are given, which results in the fact that Android apps cannot use the [built-in mechanism](https://developer.android.com/training/safetynet/recaptcha) for Recaptcha challenges. Now, Android apps have to embed a web view, which is rather cumbersome.

Done means the specification clearly defines the option and its use by Android clients.
