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

    @Jasmineqr, I know. I even stated all the options listed under the preferences section _in my Outlook app_ in my post above:

    I just updated to 4.2043.3 and in my gear settings under Preferences there's just "Accessibility", "Theme", "Privacy Settings" and "Language". Where is this new setting supposed to go?

    It's just not there for me in my Outlook app. Here's a screen shot:

    Ehm. More is not a button, it's the heading for the following section with "Tell your friends" etc.

    Try force  close the app and restart the phone.
