About this app

stuntzurl is a application that, once installed, will handle ".url" files. These files are created by Internet Explorer for its favorites.

Just copy Internet Explorer's favorites on your phone then you can click on them from any file manager. A browser will launch with the correct URL.

Please note:
- the application will not add a new launcher icon
- if your file manager asks you how to handle the file, answer something like "as a text file"
- when the app asks you for permission to read from external storage, answer yes. It's needed to read the .url file

Ratings and reviews

(Updated 27th August 2020, Android 10) New setup procedure 1 Install StuntzURL 2 Open Total commander 3 Long press on a url 4 Open with 5 Open with* 6 {amongst the several entries for Total commander} .DirBrowserActivity 7 {in the standard Android open with dialog that now appears showing icons for suitable Apps} StuntzUrl, Always. Just what I wanted since I still keep all my links as .url on my computers. Spiffing.

There seems to be no way to associate this app with a .url file on a Samsung phone.

Perfect app to open URL files to Android browser
