Hello AkAkap,


I just learned a new workaround from Eric~F, which is awesome. In case it is useful, I have gotten around this same issue by long-pressing on links and selecting "Open in New Tab." Maybe you'll find that useful, too.


Happy surfing!

Hello AkAkap,


Thank you for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. We understand while browsing the web in Safari, you'd like to avoid being redirected to an app. We'll be happy to help.


You can turn on Private Browsing in Safari, which will avoid being redirected to an app: Turn Private Browsing on or off on your iPhone or iPod touch
