Hi Could anyone suggest me, how can I configure Firefox on Android to open supported URLs in local applications by default (immediately on page opening, instead to manually touch special button)? Will be perfect, if we can set this option only for some URL patterns/apps

I tried to search in about:config with "app", "extern", "open" but fail on it =(

Hi

In the new version of Firefox for Android that will be vailable very soon, there is an option in the Settings menu to "Open links in apps". Hopefully this will help.
