[X] This is a feature request for the Cromite browser; not the website nor F-Droid nor anything else.

Is your feature request related to privacy?

Is there a patch available for this feature somewhere?

Describe the solution you would like

An option to open links from PWAs in the default browser would be nice.

Describe alternatives you have considered

That option could also be in the window if long pressed on a link.

What do you mean with PWAs run on Chrome? I open a website in cromite, press the 3 dots menu and press install App (if website has PWA). The PWA then runs in Cromite

now i get it. in cromite they are not really PWA but simple links in the homepage opened with a full screen interface, just that, no additional permissions.

And I understood that as well.

I apologise, but I do not remember this. can you tell me if it is still a problem? and if so, can you give me exactly the various steps needed to reproduce it? thank you.

Since on Google Chrome the behavior is the same, this is not really a problem but rather a feature request.

Steps to reproduce:

Open a website with PWA support like twitter.com or BMW.com

Open three dot menu and click "install app" (don't know the exact english translation)

Now open the PWA from your home screen.

Click on a link which redirects to another website.

Now the link opens in a cromite custom tab from cromite.

I would like to have the option to open external links in the default browser if possible.
