hello everyone hope you and your loved-ones are keeping safe.
I decided to weight to post here but I can't figure out the reason for it.
I read a lot of blogs and I don't have a wordpress account. so naturally I have subscribed to them via my Gmail account. now when I click on read more on an email containing the post, google opens but not the link. in fact, up untill IOS 14, it always use to ask me open with and I'd choose Safari. but it no-longer asks me and opens google and nothing else. I think its a bug but not sure.
steps to reproduce:
1. make Gmail app as your default.
2. open an email containing a link.. such as an applevis blog post or any blog post from any blogger which has a link in the email.
3. double tap on the link.
google app opens for me when I do the above steps. no link opens.
do report back what happens for you. this bug is highly irritating if its a bug.
it might be that some settings have changed so if it is so do let me know.
thank you.

I have not been able to read blog posts on my ohone unless I open the blog website and find the post I want to read in safari. it is very annoying.
please do let me know if its a bug or I'm doing anything wrong.
I have not checked what happens after the recent update to Gmail which had the icon changing but will check and let you know.
I think.
Go to settings, double tap on your name and then double tap on the Name, Phone Numbers, Email button. Edit your contact info and add it there.

I was able to open links in the Gmail app successfully up untill IOS 14. when IOS 14 came and google updated Gmail I made it my default app.
