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

    Yes, I have Firefox set as my default. I've also tired setting it to others with no luck.

    Ok, this is something different. Perhaps you don't have a default browser set in your Android settings?

    If on Android level no default browser is set, it is impossible to point to "the default browser" from the app

    Okay, so I have the "Use Default Browser" but it's greyed out and I can't turn it on. It's a private email so no corporate restrictions, but this in app browser is killing me. Does anyone else have this issue with a solution?

    I've tried the reinstall 3 times and still no bueno.
