How to prevent an application from opening links with an internal browser?

**Background** The situation is a little bit confusing but with try to explain: I have 2 applications, A and B respectively. Application A has some links which when clicked are supposed to open in application B (or use **external browser** in case application B isn't installed). This is the setup that I prefer as it doesn't use additional data since application B works offline fully. However when application A updated, it no longer allows these links to open in application B (or external) browser, instead it has an **internal browser** which is limited and needs to use data to load the content which is inconvenient. I tried to communicate with the developer and sadly they said older applications were no longer supported hence I am stuck with application A with an internal browser. Is there a way or workaround to at least force the app not to use its internal browser but allow for me to choose a preferred app or browser to open these links?
