This one works https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.sec.android.app.sbrowser&cId=000004211888

If it still says incompatible then you haven't updated your tablet. Open Settings, Biometrics and Security and apply both the Samsung and Google Updates in that section

@Dermotk : If you're using the Samsung Internet app, tap the 3 lines in the bottom right and you should see the option for 'Tablet Site' here. You can also tap the 3 lines in the bottom right > Settings > Useful Features > Open Links In Other Apps > On, to open sites in related apps.

If in chrome, deselect the desktop site option under the 3 dots menu (you may need to scroll down the list).

Samsung Internet app is compatible, it comes pre-installed and updates via the Galaxy App store. If you are struggling with Chrome, the best option is to clear the Chrome app cache and data. long hold the Chrome icon on the Home Screen and tap the info icon. Then tap storage and use the two icons at the bottom of the screen.

I have the same Tablet, Samsung Internet still works and updates. There are two instances of it in the Galaxy Store though so try the other one
