Hi, I’ve searched the forums and it seems that one or two people have this issue.  
When I put a clickable link in my app by using action text with an “open link” action, there are two choices for where to open it: browser or web view.  
Web view embeds the linked page, which works only for sites that allow embedding, but browser opens the link in such a way that the app itself is exited. The only way to get back to the app is by closing and reopening it.  
Please add the feature of opening a link in a completely separate browser rather than the PWA itself. If this feature already exists, please let me know. Thanks.
