Describe the feature

I currently use fdroid's version acode on my galaxy tab s8 ultra to make websites, and i always have the tablet on power saving, however, if i have power saving on, and i press on the "Preview" play button on the bottom right, it shows the popup in the image below:

I tried looking for an option to disable this popup and allow web preview in my browser of choice, but there's no option for that, and i'd have to manually disable the power saving on my tablet, or use samsung routines, but i would love if there's a new option in the preview settings that allows web preview on the external browser even when i have power saving enabled. I usually do split screen on my tab s8 ultra whenever coding websites, and i have auto save and format on save for html on, then manually reload my browser, iceraven, a fork of firefox.

If the acode team adds a new option within the "Preview" section of settings, this would be fixed and would be much appreciated, as battery consumption is higher with no power saving, and unwanted background apps are open, so adding a new option would not only help me, but others who use power saving, especially for long coding sessions.

If applicable, add mockups / screenshots to help present your vision of the feature

Here is where i feel the new option, if implemented, should be placed, in the image below.
