Accessing non default apps

[GrouchoM]

Darn marshmallow seems to quickly force the user to select a default app for each function (browsing, photos, music...). Once that's done, the Share functions completely avoid the other apps. Are there any good work arounds?

Not sure what's happening in your case, but why not just open the app you want and navigate from there?

I can do that but, as an example, when I open a news story in my preferred browser (which lacks flash but is very inconspicuous and lightweight) I can't easily share the story with a flash capable browser like Puffin.

The app Better Open With solves the issue for the browser but not for things like the camera, music player, video player,....

Ah now I get it. You still don't have the update that fixes the just once and set as default.

Sorry not sure how to fix it in your case.

What update?

What update?

When I received a 350mb update from Samsung last June, the phone started asking me if I wanted to set the app as default or use it just once. Like in older Android versions.
