I used,
<ion-button href="https://stackoverflow.com">StackOverFlow</ion-button>
The URL is opening in the in-app browser, I need to open an android system's default browser.
I have gone through the official document, I couldn't find useless information from there.
You want to read the cordova documentation it can b help you to find your solution.
_self: Opens in the Cordova WebView if the URL is in the white list, otherwise, it opens in the InAppBrowser. _blank: Opens in the InAppBrowser. _system: Opens in the system's web browser.
Cordova https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/latest/reference/cordova-plugin-inappbrowser/index.html
Ionic 4 https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/in-app-browser
To programmatically open URLs (for example by binding to a (click) event of a button or link) in Capacitor you can use this:
Open externally:
Capacitor V2: Use the App API (https://capacitorjs.com/docs/apis/app) where you have a method canOpenUrl(…) and a method openUrl(…).
Capacitor V3: Use the AppLauncher API (https://capacitorjs.com/docs/v3/apis/app-launcher) where you have a method canOpenUrl(…) and a method openUrl(…).
Open in in-app browser:
If you want to open an URL in a so called in-app browser you can use the Browser API (@capacitor/browser plugin):
On Android this opens a Chrome WebView, on iOS a SFSafariViewController, so the user "kind of" stays in the app.
