Hi all, i recently freeze chrome to get webview working, as i was used to it with my other old smartphones and because i don't like chrome as a browser, i used firefox for a while but after the latest update i can't save the images from the web anymore by long press (it select all instead, idk why), and now i'm using samsung browser beta (unbelivable fast omg).
My question is, is a good idea to use webview?
from some apps, when it comes to call for external pages, they won't load, and i had to "open in firefox" (Wich i can't do now as samsung browser is not showing).
So,
WebView or Chrome? and why?
Hi,
So yesterday my Pixel 2 XL got majorly corrupted so I had to re-install everything from scratch including a full wipe and today I re-installed everything but I'm having issues with opening links now...
Before if I opened a link it would ask me if I wanted to open it in Firefox or Chrome, 90% of the time I would open them with Chrome however links from one specific app I open in Firefox mainly because of adblock on Firefox.
How do I get my phone back to either asking what browser I would like to open the links in or better yet make it so all links from a specific app open in Firefox and every other link/app opens in Chrome?
I've checked WebView, Chrome, Firefox and the app I use and there are no "Default Open with" setup on any of them...
Thanks
If I'm using Chrome and looking something up I might click on a Reddit or news link, it asks you if you want to open it via Chrome or if I have the app installed the that app.
Sometimes it's faster just to view the web page instead so I don't usually choose use app all the time.
Something changed where no longer can select use Chrome just this instance, the pop up comes back and you can only choose the app.
I'm not sure when this changed, if it was the Android 11 upgrade or one of the patches since.
For now I just turned off opening links in apps.
Any ideas if it's a bug or one of the many things Samsung changed in 11?
No problem here, go to Chrome and clear defaults. You might have accidentally tapped always.
Hello guys as im not sure which section this thread should be in but since I'm p7p user with root i chose to go here.
Here's the problem Im facing.
I downloaded brave browser and set it to default browser.
Yet google (and all it apps like to use chrome for internet traffic like opening website from google feed).
Only possible way to divert everything is by disabling Chrome. But doing that you Will lose saved passwords pop up.
So is there any other possible way to change these settings or maybe a rooted app i can use to change system preferences.
Cheers and thanks
I think it's under settings of the app then open web links like say I clicked a Google search of a Facebook post it would launched the app but when I click the app setting then untick open app I'm not sure but I think it's that just looked at chrome it didn't have it but showed deafult browser so might have to check if brave is selected but yours is the 2nd post I seen about brave browser on 7 pro did you get march update by any chance
Hi everyone,
I use the Twitter app for one of my accounts, but since I like to quick-switch between them, I've resorted to using Firefox and I've installed a shortcut to the Twitter web page on my OnePlus 9 homescreen.
I know I could switch between accounts in the app itself, but I don't like it. I'd rather use two different apps, one for each of my Twitter accounts.
Problem is, unless I do two things I really, REALLY don't like (use the default system launcher AND use Chrome instead of Firefox), the user-experience of this setup is disastrous.
Scrolling up and down my timeline in the Firefox pinned shortcut is painfully slow, more often than not I have to tap a Like or Retweet button several times for the action to register, and generally speaking, it's no fun to use at all, regardless of the power setting I use.
I want to use Firefox because it has add-ons I like, such as uBlock Origin (bye-bye promoted tweets!) and NoScript, which, to my knowledge, can't be installed on any other Android Web browser (please correct me if I'm wrong).
Of course, it works flawlessly in Chrome or any other Chromium-based browser, but seeing all those promoted tweets just makes me nauseous...
(As for the default/system launcher, I just don't like it: the app drawer can't be customized worth a lick, and though it feels fast, it's just not my cup of tea.)
I've tried all the Android flavors of Firefox (stable, beta, Dev Edition), the result is the same.
Am I missing something here? Have you guys experienced the same issues, and if so, how did you solve them?
EDIT: I've installed Friendly for Twitter and it seems OK. Any users around to share feedback?

Thanks, but that is mean the phone has to be rooted?
I may have found the reason why it was so slow: I chose 1.1.1.1 as specified DNS (in fact it's "1dot1dot1dot1.com") and that must have messed up how Twitter works in Firefox, because right now, that shortcut on my homescreen works fine, albeit a bit more slowly than the Twitter app.
