Why/User Benefit/User Problem

Firefox users tend to be more privacy conscious, so redirecting them to another app without consent may not be the best behavior. I suggest the Samsung Internet's approach of asking the user before opening any website with an external application (when the corresponding app is installed).

What / Requirements

A pop-up asking something like "do you want to open thiswebsite.com with it's external application?" (In the case thiswebsite.com has an app installed on the device)

Acceptance Criteria (how do I know when I’m done?)

When touching a YouTube link on Google for example, the user is asked whether they want to open it on Fenix or other app.
