Force Links to Open with Your Favorite Android Apps [How-To]

Get an Easy Escape Route for When You're Stuck in the Wrong App

In this video, I'll be showing you a cool new app called "Open Link With" that uses Android's share menu to let you open links in any app of your choosing.

Android already lets you set third-party apps as the default handlers of certain types of links, but sometimes, links will still end up opening in the wrong app. Other times, you might want to open a link in a different app just this once, but that would require that you clear defaults and reset link-handling settings.

That's where Open Link With comes into play. Whenever a link opens in the wrong app, just head to Android's share menu, then select this one from the list. It will ask you which app you'd like to open the link with, but it won't mess with your existing link-handling settings.

Does nothing for me. Still opens up with Chrome and gives me no option to change.

On Xiaomi 2022 it is not valid already. The Share layout does not include "Open With"

I tried all the shown steps exactly but still whenever I click on any link to open directly in the app, it's opening in the browser. It's not a permanent solution.

Someone help me understand this....
I bought an S10 last year. I've had several samsung phones over the past 10 years.
I decided to do a full refresh on my s10.
After the refresh not a single link opens in an app.
I never once needed a third party app.
I have refreshed everything. Reset everything. Uninstaller everything.

What changed suddenly?

The E from the developer looks like the E from E Corp (Mr. Robot)
