[MEGATHREAD] How do I turn on "Connect to URL"

[AC Question]

When sent a web address via text message, I cannot connect to it and instead get the message above. However, when I go to 'settings' on my LGG2, there is no option to turn on URL. Can anyone help me to be able to open web pages sent via text?

Re: How to connect to URL in settings menu

It's not in settings. You need to open a web browser, such as Chrome, and enter the address in the url space.

You have to go into crome and click 3 dots up top and then click more then it says turn it on.

Turn what on? You have to give us the exact message. The whole exact message.

Re: Activate URL using android

Welcome to the forums. What phone do you have? Open the settings in your Messages app and search for an option to open links in the app/browser.

Where is the URL on my phone

I have a Stylo 4 phone where is the URL setting on it so I can turn it on

Re: Where is the URL on my phone

That depends on what the exact wording of the message is, and what app is creating it. Phones don't have URLs, only servers on the internet do. (Yes, to purists, you can set your PC so that you can connect to it - but then it's running a server program - no server, no "connect to". A client can't connect to a client.)

I'm thinking we're getting a poor translation to English from some other language (or multiple).

Is it possible it really means that you don't have a default browser set? Can you find a way to set Chrome to open links (or URL's)?

Welcome to Android Central.

re: [MEGATHREAD] How do I turn on "Connect to URL"

Is there a chance you can post a screenshot of the message you're receiving? Just the "need to turn on URL" makes very little sense to any of us who haven't actually seen this.

A URL is a "Universal Resource Locator", it's a plain-language address that gets converted into a machine address using servers on the internet. A URL is not something that typically gets turned on at a device or node (a device is a node) level.

Folks, it's usually a setting in your Messaging app, as I had previously referred to in a linked thread. Open your messaging app, tap Menu>Settings and look for an option to "Connect to URL." LG G3: How to Enable Connect to an URL Upon Tapping on URL inside a Message - ITJungles

That sounds like joke, a good one with the amount of people buying it.

Go to your messages. Press the 3 dots. In the list that pops up settings should be on that list. Press settings and in that next list URL connection should be there it also warns of phishing scams!
