Facebook has lately in 2014 rolled out inbuilt browser for Facebook App. This inbuilt browser shows optimized content of the webpage you open, i.e whenever you open or click on any link in the App it forces you to in-app browser, opening optimized version of the webpage. Followed by Facebook, Twitter also rolled out their In-app browser, which also forces optimized version of webpages.
So, today I will show you how to disable this in-app / in-built browser.
Disable Facebook Browser
1) Open Facebook App
2) Go to Settings (by taping or holding the menu button and then taping the settings)
