Use the webviewer component, it is a browser within your app.
Play around with buttons and their images and use when buttonclick - set webviewer to the homepage you want.

webViewer on user interface right?

Delete the 4 web components, you only need the webviewer.

In the blocks editor delete the 4 green pieces and use an empty text block there instead. In the text block write your url. It should look like this:
When button1.click
Call webviewer go to url - http://www.google.com

Okay, this is the working block, already test it, and it working,

although there is something strange,
1.when i click the button, it takes a long time to proses, is it because i use ai companion?
2. the picture on button is not  view on the program, is it because the picture?

Partially because of the emulator, and partially because it has to contact each site and that takes a few secs...
