Andrew (Digitwell) Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Sep 1, 2018 #1 I have a client who has requested the facility to start an app from a link in an email on both Android and iOS. I have found a link for Android, https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/start-app-from-uri-in-email.27052/#post-156618 but i can't find anything for iOS. Is it possible? Thanks Andrew

Andrew (Digitwell) Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Sep 1, 2018 #2 Typical, as soon as I post a message, I find the answer! It seems that I can register a URL scheme ,https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/register-url-scheme.46237/#post-285430, and then use that to open the app. I do have a followup. How would I present, in an email, i button/link which will direct the user to the correctly constructed intent/scheme for ANdroid or Apple ? Upvote 0
