Just got my new S25 and it seems like I have to decide on a default browser. Is there a way to not select a default browser. I may be the exception but I like to choose specific browsers for different tasks. Is there a way to select None for my default browser?

No. Android requires you to set a default browser to open web links in external apps.

The default browser is just the one that gets picked when you tap on a link in another app. You can still start a different browser and use copy/paste to open sites.

I normally have Firefox as my default, but some websites (I'm looking at you, Apple) don't work right in Firefox so I have to use Chrome.

You might be able to go into whatever default you selected, chrome and tell it to clear defaults then it should ask you

It never gave me an option during set up and when I go i to default apps and go to browser there isn't a None option anymore.
