I’d love to be able to have my system browser of choice be used while I am still in the app. It’s terribly annoying clicking on a link and leaving Memmy to view it.

As an aside, I love y’all’s app and appreciate you. Keep us posted on when you add your tip jar, eh?

iPhone Settings > Safari > Default Browser > [Preferred Browser].Its not a Memmy thing, its a system-choice.

Should work for ya

Edit: Oh, you mean like "in-app". I thought in-app was ALWAYS Safari but I sort of remember being able to use alternative browsers in Apollo, although I feel like it was out-app rather than in. Hmmm

Edit: I think its a good practice to not view things in-app if privacy is a concern. I don't think its an issue with Memmy but there was a lot of hackles raised (rightfully so) that many apps like Facebook were abusing in-app browsing where people didn't expect to be tracked/datamined, especially if logging into personal accounts etc.

Ha, yes! What your first edit says. That’s what I mean.

But you make a good point on your second edit. I never felt it was an issue with Apollo. But then again, you are right, I wouldn’t have know if it was an issue with tracking.

I use Brave as my default browser (yes I’m aware I should be switching to Firefox) so it’s nice to browse within Brave’s browser on Memmy rather than Safari.
