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

Exactly, it only opens the default browser. As soon as a link is tied to an app, the app still opens in Outlook
Hey everyone,
So as it seems a new version of Outlook finally enables the "Use default browser" feature.
As of now it is possible to use Chrome by default...
No seriously, what did they want? The in-app browser, if you download a file through it, guess what? It is stored in a hidden folder from Outlook's app and you just can't access it (well, without rooting device).
So...
Thank God they gave us back a few options here, right.
Damn.

Hi, not sure if this issue is still ongoing but I had the exact same issue and fixed it by going onto the Outlook app, going to settings & then right at the bottom there's an option to use default browser. Make sure this is on and it use Chrome or whatever you have set as your default!
They added a setting to use default browser. In the app click on the settings gear icon, scroll down to preferences and check the box for use default browser.
Hope this helps.
