Homebrew RELEASE Replace album viewer with web browser

[Nintendoes]

This album title replacement gives you a more convenient way to open the web browser. Instead of changing the DNS settings or launching to a different homebrew application you can open the album icon to get to the built-in web browser. This also works while an existing application is already running.

It also allows you to enter a URL manually by pressing X instead of having to search for it (press X again to exit the browser). If you need to use the album viewer again simply keep L pressed when clicking the icon.

To install merge the atmosphere folder from the zip file with the existing folder on your SD card. The web folder contains the source code and does not need to be copied.

It is, though I don't know how far back it works on older firmware.

Does this fully utilize the switch? I'm not sure if launching through applets gives the browser everything it can have via launching through a title icon

It opens the same browser type as homebrew through a title icon does. In my testing I've been able to play youtube videos as well, so it seems to be fully featured.

If it does ever run out of memory just report it here and I can look into freeing up some extra space.

I think Atmosphere should include this... like pressing B while launching Album!
B = Browser!

The browser is always an applet. So no matter what you do it’ll always be limited to applet memory (around 400mb)
