Alex Novosad said that he had the idea for Choosy at the end of 2013, when he was finishing his first iOS app and realized that he wanted to let users decide which Twitter client to use to open a embedded in the app.Ĭhoosy tries to solve a problem that several iOS developers had to face in the past: giving the user options to open links in other, non-default apps.
Choosy app android#
Unlike OS X, iOS doesn’t let users select new default applications for web links, photos, or directions shared through map coordinates while Google’s Android has long allowed users to set their favorite mobile browser or pick a different email app, Apple has so far stuck on the idea of keeping their own built-in apps as the only default choices for iOS.
Created by Alex Novosad from development studio Substantial and released today as a beta on GitHub, Choosy is a new third-party framework that wants to (at least partially) improve upon iOS’ lack of a default app selection mechanism.
