> On my Android phone I have 5 web browsers installed.

For what percentage of users is this likely to be a concern?

I get that popup whenever a file can be handled by multiple apps (youtube links: browser or native app, images: browser or some editor/viewer, etc.).

It happens occasionally to me and I'm not a smartphone "power user".

I would think that for a set of common intents, most users have more than 1 app that can handle it. It is bad UX to ask every time, and it's also bad UX to force them to choose 1 forever. I don't know what the solution is.
