iOS - Open an app with a URL Scheme from Chrome
- by Brett
I've read many many blogs and examples of how to open an app from an URL scheme (for example, this blog), and it seems to work great when I call my app from mobile safari. For instance, when I call testapp://some.data.here in mobile safari, it opens my testapp and I can parse out the some.data.here.
However, when I call testapp://some.data.here in iOS-Chrome, it just googles the term instead of calling the app.
Is there a way to have iOS Chrome recognize the URL as a registered app the way mobile safari does?
When I google this topic, I see a lot of comments on how to open a url in chrome from an app, but not the other way around.
Has anyone encountered this?
Thanks!
