   In #Fedilab, the built-in browser is called "Custom tabs" which makes no sense with its goal. We will rename it simply "built-in browser".
   Thank you for your reports and to translators that will help us to fix that.

     The "custom tabs" feature is not only available in chromium-based browsers. Firefox for Android also provides it.
     But I agree that "built-in" browser can be misleading. Maybe "load links in-app" or "in-app browser" (as Telegram names it, for instance) would work better.

     Yes, we will use "in-app browser".

     But it is not a built-in browser, but uses the "custom tabs" functionality of chromium-based browsers.
     The name "custom tabs" is not known to most people, so this is not working as label, but "built-in browser" is neither; it's as best misleading.
     Unfortunately I am not creative enough to come up with something better on the spot, so I am just sharing my thoughts.
