Android Question WebView: Redirect links to Browser?

[LWGShane]

I'm looking into an ad service that doesn't have any native SDKs and uses Javascript to render the ads.

The only solution is to use a WebView, and I'm wanting to know if it's possible to tell links to load in an external browser instead of the WebView.

Yes. You can use PhoneIntents from the Phone library to open a link in the default browser.

Handle WebView_OverrideUrl. This will allow you to get the link and open it in the default browser.
