Hi, I noticed that all my links in my Android Outlook app open in an in build browser instead of the app, (such as youtube) This is really frustrating as I have to do other steps to find the option to 'Open in browser' so it then opens in the youtube app. This is for all links amazon, twitter etc. 

Is there any way to disable this option? I am unable to find it in settings withtin the app.

Thanks

    At the bottom toggle button use default browser.

    You can now use your default browser. Go to options, scroll to the bottom and slide the slider to the right and it will now use your default browser, in my case its Chrome.

    Wow! Just wow....

    It happens in iOS too. My saved passwords work in my default browser. There needs to be a way to default Outlook’s settings to opt out of this “feature” that isn’t useful.
