Not all apps respect this and still use its own special in-app browser
Hello there.
I’m busy with my academics now, so I may not post or comment. I’ll still be keeping an eye on my communities though.
Not all apps respect this and still use its own special in-app browser
This is not mildly infuriating, this is extremely infuriating
Nougat had the best easter egg imo
Well, I use ReVanced so I won’t have to pay a penny and still have all the features from the official app
It’s the same mentality as people just pressing “Next” in an installer and wonder why their browser homepage is hijacked or why there are programs that they never installed. People see the “Block” or “Accept” options in the notifications dialog and press Accept without even reading, especially on mobile browsers (Chrome) where it asks you as if it’s a system message.
If I was to be forced to write that, maybe the people that read the feedback will either have a blast or be disgusted, lol.
It’s a Google thing, not necessarily an app thing. Apps will have a minimum SDK level (basically the oldest Android version the app can run on) and a target SDK level (the Android version that the app is optimised for, which is usually the latest Android version). Google keeps increasing the SDK level requirements for apps to be published on the Play Store, so if an app is too old and hasn’t received any updates, you will see that message. But chances are that the app will run just fine if you install it from an APK file.
It may seem ridiculous but it’s good because it prevents people from installing super old apps, which may leave room for exploits in modern versions of Android.
Aaw did I miss it? :(
