How do I prevent Firefox from openning app on my iPhone when clicking on link, or show a pop-up to ask if I want to open the app. There are hidden ads on a site that will always trigger when I tap anywhere and will open an app installed on my device.

Thank you, I appreciate your help!

What app is it trying to open?

Lazada and Shopee, which are online retailers similar to Amazon. I believe they are making money off my purchases through some sort of affiliate system.

Do you have the apps loaded on your phone? If yes, try deleting them and see what happens.

I can’t really delete those apps because I do use them myself to purchase stuff

This would just be to see if the pop-up goes away. Then you can reinstall the app.

I’ll try that! Thank you!
