How to open extarnal url in default browser and all internal links in WebView Android?

I use this logic that every internal link contains 'myurl' string so it should be open in WebView and other external link in default browser.

package com.package.webviewapp;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;


public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);


        WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);
        webView.setWebViewClient(new MyWebViewClient());

        String url = "http://myurl.com";
        webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
        webView.loadUrl(url);

    }
}
class MyWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
    @Override
    public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
        if(url.contains("myurl")){ // Could be cleverer and use a regex
            view.loadUrl(url); // Stay within this webview and load url
            return true;
        } else {
            return super.shouldOverrideUrlLoading(view, url); // Leave webview and use browser
        }
    }
}

but it is opening all links in WebView. as it is mentioned here Open link from Android Webview in normal browser as popup it should work.

When you want to load other url use below method , it will open in default browser

Intent myIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(download_link));
startActivity(myIntent);
