add custom URL Schema using http://

I want to add a custom URL to my iPhone app so other ap开发者_StackOverflow中文版ps will be able to open it, However I want the URL to begin with "http", in more details, I want to open the app form a link in an email i've sent to the user and the link has to be valid that if the email is read from a desktop computer he will be redirected to the site.

I know that there are apps that do so -like youtube that reacts to http://www.youtube.com

However I'm not sure whether Third party app can

Thanks, Guy.


You have to run the link through your site first.

For example, the link in the email could be http://<YOUR_SITE>/Q9xDH364

And this link could take them to a special page on your site. On your site, if you detect the user agent from an iPad/iPhone/iPod, you can display an alert that says something like:

If you have "MY APP" installed on your device, you can view this link in your app

Then, if the user presses ok, translate the http://<YOUR_SITE>/Q9xDH364 link into a link your app can get, such as my_app://<YOUR_SITE>/Q9xDH364

This works well for my app, Ambiance. For an example, go to http://snd.am/35 from your iPhone and your browser and see the differences.


This does not work for third-party apps. Only Apple's own apps can react to certain http:// links.
