I use a Pixel 6 Pro with Android 14 installed, and I cannot use Proton Mail instead of Gmail for email links. Whenever I click Proton Mail, Gmail is still the top option the next time I open the same email link. I don’t want to reset app preferences, as I have too many notification and app usage settings set for my apps. Is there a way to set Proton Mail as the default? (preferably a universal method so that I can use this on other apps)
Attached below are pictures of the app “Open by default” settings from the Android settings app for both Gmail and Proton Mail.
I highly recommend switching to GrapheneOS, it is very easy to install, even from another phone completely GUI.
apart from that, disable all google crap you dont need including gmail, and it will not show anymore and block that place.
You could maybe also disable “open links” in gmail app settings (long press on icon, app info) but I think this doesnt work
I’m very attracted by grapheneOS, but got absolutely addicted to paying with my phone in the short time I’ve had an NFC chip on one.
I was too, but honestly it cuts down on impulse buying which is nice.
I can’t really disable Gmail though, because I have two accounts that currently rely on it.
You can use your Gmail accounts on different clients. Both Fairemail and K-9 Mail support it.
did you try what other people said, namely going to Gmail app info (depends on your lancher/settings layout) > Set as default > Open supported links (toggle to disable)?
Yes you need to register a new device on the website and it works, never did it but a friend of mine
