I am making a mobile browser app. When you download a browser from the play market, then a notification pops up "Which browser do you want to use by default?". How to do it?
Update:
I added this filter to AndroidManifest.xml
file. And now, when you click on a link in any application, it asks through which browser to open the link, but now how to intercept this link to send it to the webview? As here
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.speech.action.VOICE_SEARCH_RESULTS" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data android:scheme="http" />
<data android:scheme="https" />
<data android:scheme="about" />
<data android:scheme="javascript" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<data android:scheme="http" />
<data android:scheme="https" />
<data android:scheme="inline" />
<data android:mimeType="text/html" />
<data android:mimeType="text/plain" />
<data android:mimeType="application/xhtml+xml" />
<data android:mimeType="application/vnd.wap.xhtml+xml" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.WEB_SEARCH" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data android:scheme="" />
<data android:scheme="http" />
<data android:scheme="https" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MEDIA_SEARCH" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEARCH" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>

You can use this package receive_sharing_intent
example code:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'dart:async';
import 'package:receive_sharing_intent/receive_sharing_intent.dart';
class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
const MyApp({super.key});
@override
_MyAppState createState() => _MyAppState();
}
class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {
late StreamSubscription _intentDataStreamSubscription;
String? _sharedText;
@override
void initState() {
super.initState();
// For sharing or opening urls/text coming from outside the app while the app is in the memory
_intentDataStreamSubscription =
ReceiveSharingIntent.getTextStream().listen((String value) {
setState(() {
_sharedText = value;
print("Shared: $_sharedText");
});
}, onError: (err) {
print("getLinkStream error: $err");
});
// For sharing or opening urls/text coming from outside the app while the app is closed
ReceiveSharingIntent.getInitialText().then((String? value) {
setState(() {
_sharedText = value;
print("Shared: $_sharedText");
});
});
}
@override
void dispose() {
_intentDataStreamSubscription.cancel();
super.dispose();
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
const textStyleBold = TextStyle(fontWeight: FontWeight.bold);
return MaterialApp(
home: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: const Text('Plugin example app'),
),
body: Center(
child: Column(
children: <Widget>[
const Text("Shared urls/text:", style: textStyleBold),
Text(_sharedText ?? "")
],
),
),
),
);
}
}
