BRUSSELS - Users of Android devices will be able to choose their browsers and search engines from five options starting on Thursday, a senior Google executive said, in a move aimed at addressing EU antitrust concerns and staving off fresh sanctions.
The European Commission said Google had an unfair advantage by pre-installing its Chrome browser and Google search app on Android smartphones and notebooks. “Two screens will surface: one for search apps and another for browsers, each containing a total of five apps, including any that are already installed,” he said.
