Note This setting applies only to the current web browser. Repeat these steps for each browser and device that you use.

The next time that you open a Quip link from your email, Slack, or somewhere else, confirm that you want to open the document in the desktop app. If you don’t have the Quip app, download it from the confirmation page.
