In this guide, we will show you a nifty workaround to disable the ‘Do you want to allow this page to open’ pop-up in Safari. When it comes to the browser domain, then the default built-in offering from the Cupertino giant usually manages to checkmark most of the prerequisites. However, it isn’t free from its fair share of infuriating behaviors either. One among them is the ‘Do you want to allow this page to open’ pop-up in Safari.
For instance, every time I click on the Zoom link, then rather than taking me to the Zoom app, it will take me to Safari and the browser will then ask ‘Do you want to allow this page to open Zoom’.

Fortunately, there does exist a handy way out of this situation. And in this guide, we will make you aware of just that. Follow along.
