Is there a way to prevent one app from automatically opening another app when tapping on links?
On iOS, the system prompts me for permission before an app can open a link in another app. However, on Android, it seems to happen automatically without any confirmation.
Thanks in advance!
A longer answer to those comments already here is that it may depend on the particular app. If you are trying to prevent the browser or a system app (including perhaps the app store or assistant, among others) from being opened, it may not be possible, depending on the exact OS you are using.
Most other apps can be prevented from opening links, as described in other comments.
I’m using GrapheneOS. Is it possible to “prevent the browser or a system app (including perhaps the app store or assistant, among others) from being opened” in GOS?
