About this app

This APP can help you to open a file which contains a site in it, and automatically open it in a browser.
No need to open, edit, copy and paste to the browser, save lots of your time!!

For example, when you click on a URL file in Google Drive or any file explorer, choose "URL opener", then you will automatically be redirected to that website.

Support three different ways to open a link:
- From Google drive, choose open with, you will be redirect to the site mentioned in the URL file.
- With the build-in button in the app, you can choose the file in any path with a website in it.
- Use 3rd party file explorer, choose open with URLopen (choose text/document type if requested).


##################
Note:
- This APP needs storage permission to be able to be fully functional.

- For older Android version which does not have build-in file manager, it is recommended to install one to be fully functional for the open button in the app.

- Currently cannot open Google Doc file, you need to create a .txt or .url file.

- If you have any questions on how to use this app or your device cannot work well, please email to me and it would be better to attach the file that you are trying to open with "URL opener". I am willing to help, thank you.

Really useful. One suggestion though: I would like to be able to open url files straight from my file explorer. Having to open the app everytime is kinda annoying. I tried to set the app as a default to open these files, but there is no option for that in the settings. I understand you need the profit from the ads in the app screen, but I would be willing to pay for this functionality (as long as it's not too expensive). Other than this, the app is perfect.

Works great for me with File Manager + on a Oneplus 8T with stock launcher. Does exactly what I assumed it would do. Tap a .url file (generated in Windows by dragging from the URL bar in Firefox to Windows Explorer), and it opens in my default web browser (Firefox Nightly.) I am sure there is scope for this to not work depending on Android version and what have you but it works great for me.

Works. But in miui10, doesn't work if the default browser is not selected. The browser pick dialogue doesn't open browser. This is an app to open files with the filename extension ".url". ".url" files are encountered in windows when you create shortcut to a web address from windows explorer ( like ".lnk" files are created when you create shortcut to folders or files) When you sync windows files with Android (using syncthing etc.) you need a way to open it in Android -> this is the app for that.
