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

    Just solved the problem by uninstalling Outlook and connecting Hotmail account to third party email app. I recommend everyone doing the same. Microsoft is forcing us into using something we do not want, there is no other way to push back.
