    Hey

     

    I have been trying to jump from my one app to other on Simplifier Mobile client through link with query parameters. I am following this link from simplifier documentation.

    App Links

    But here it is not mention how will you open this link on mobile. Generally, we open the link on press event by calling window.open(link), But this doesn’t work here. It would be great if you can give detailed explanation on how can we use it to open link on Android or Iphone.

     

    A complete example would be very helpful.

     

    Thanks

    Hey Ishant,

    i followed the instruction in the linked documentation and everything is working as expected.
    I used Version 6.0.13 on iOS and 6.0.8 on Android

    I created a new app and simply placed a link widget inside it and set the href property to be “simplifierclient://appDirect/<nameOfTheAppIWantToOpen>”.

    When clicking on the link a dialog opens which asks if i want to change to the defined application.
    Maybe the value provided as href is the deprecated version (3 times / )?

    Best regards,
    Dan

    Is it achievable through javascript as like this:-

    window.open(“simplifierclient://appDirect/<nameOfTheAppIWantToOpen>”);

    at your end ?
