"Manage synced data" opens in the default browser |
||||
Issue descriptionThe "Manage synced data" option in Sync settings on Android intents out of Chrome and opens in the default browser (which may be different than the Chrome instance the user was just in). This also results in taking the user out of context, in that pressing the back arrow does not return them to the Sync settings (but e.g. closes the tab in this default browser).

Thanks for the report, Martin! We should definitely open this URL in the same instance of Chrome. I'll take a look.

Theresa, do we have a facility that opens a URL in the current Chrome instance? It looks like HistoryManager.getOpenUrlIntent [1] does this, but do we have a reusable method doing similar stuff?

We don't have a generic method that I know of, although having one sounds helpful. Can you link the intent code for the "managed synced data" option. I think you likely just need to add a package name.
