I use a Pixel 6 Pro with Android 14 installed, and I cannot use Proton Mail instead of Gmail for email links. Whenever I click Proton Mail, Gmail is still the top option the next time I open the same email link. I don’t want to reset app preferences, as I have too many notification and app usage settings set for my apps. Is there a way to set Proton Mail as the default? (preferably a universal method so that I can use this on other apps)

Attached below are pictures of the app “Open by default” settings from the Android settings app for both Gmail and Proton Mail.

    I can’t really disable Gmail though, because I have two accounts that currently rely on it.

      You can use your Gmail accounts on different clients. Both Fairemail and K-9 Mail support it.

      did you try what other people said, namely going to Gmail app info (depends on your lancher/settings layout) > Set as default > Open supported links (toggle to disable)?
