I don’t want it. I have to agree to a bunch of new cookies, and if a login is required there goes my flow. Opening links directly in my desired browser is what helps me.
The current flow is appalling:
It could all be so much easier if you let me disable this in app browser. Thank you and goodnight
I agree that the current in-app browser behavior needs more user control, but my main issue is slightly different.
When I tap a link inside ChatGPT, I want to be able to choose:
Open in ChatGPT
or
Open in Browser
Sometimes the embedded browser is perfectly fine. Other times I am using the linked page as a reference while continuing the conversation in ChatGPT.
In those situations, opening the page inside ChatGPT effectively covers the conversation I am working from. To refer back to the chat, I have to leave or close the browser layer, and I can lose my place on the page I was reading.
That makes research unnecessarily cumbersome.
The ideal behavior would be a simple choice when opening or long-pressing a link:
Open in ChatGPT
Open in default browser
Optionally, “Always use this choice”
This is less about disliking the in-app browser and more about preserving two separate working contexts: the conversation and the source material.
