Setting Chrome & Edge as your default browser

Beam Notes only works on Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge web browsers - it’s important that only one of these should be chosen as your default browser (Chrome is the preferred choice).

Follow this step-by-step guide to set your default browser correctly so that your device will always open Beam Notes using the correct browser.

Android:

Go to: Settings > Apps > Default apps > Browser app > Select Chrome

1. Confirm that you have either the Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome mobile app installed on your device. If not, download either app from the Google Play Store.

 

2. Once downloaded, open your device Settings.

 

3. Scroll down and tap on Apps or Apps & notifications (the exact name may vary depending on your device).

 

4. Tap on Choose default apps. If you don't see this option, you may need to tap on the three-dot menu icon in the top-right corner and then select Default apps.

 

5. Tap on Browser app.

 

6. From the list of available browsers, select Chrome / Edge.
