I am making some app and use firebase dynamic link.
When I tested dynamic link on my android phone, It works well.
And in my iOS, it also works, but the page does not change and any parameter does not pass.
When I input deeplink like below picture on safari, it works well.
Is there something else that I missed?
I set Associated Domains on xcode.
I am using iOS 10 and using ionic2(cordova)!
You can do that using SMS app.
Paste your deepLink and send it. So when you click on the link your app will be open.

I'm using the branch.io API to create deeplinks send by email to our users. When creating the link I add some metadata for the iOS app like the deelinkpath and other useful data.
I'm able to see these params when I copy the branch link and open the iOS app manually. And it works also when the link opens safari first before redirecting to the app.
However if the link opens the app directly from the email (universal link), branch doesn't recognise the link and returns
["+clicked_branch_link": 0, "+is_first_session": 0]
Any idea on what I'm missing?
Thanks!
The issue was related to a wrong implementation of the Scene Delegate methods to manage the continue user activity as we support only iOS > 13.0.
This new version of the Branch iOS SDK doc explains how to fix the implementation for apps using Scenes: https://help.branch.io/developers-hub/docs/ios-basic-integration#section-apps-using-scenes
Did some research but haven't found way to detect app referrer in iOS app(App is based on Swift Language), Flow is
Someone has posted some web link on FB i.e. link is
https://example.com.
Assume our iOS app is already installed on user's
device, hence when someone click on that link it will trigger ourapp(via
deep linking flow), and its working fine but also would like to know
source from which app user land to our iOS app.
Looks like in android there is way to achieve this using AndroidAppUri but haven't found way for iOS, let me know if anybody has any suggestion\input.
I created a dynamic link on firebase dynamics like in their tutorial here
https://firebase.google.com/docs/dynamic-links/ios/receive
using an app ID (WhatsApp) which is not mine because not yet on App Store.
When i click on it (in Notes or Mail), it goes to Safari and ask if i want to open WhatsApp in AppStore.
When i come back to my app, i don't receive any link.
Do i need to publish my app to the appstore before it works?
You do not need to publish your App in AppStore in order to test the Firebase Dynamic Links.
Did you followed steps here https://firebase.google.com/docs/dynamic-links/ios/receive regarding Set up Firebase and the Dynamic Links SDK and Open Dynamic Links in your app?
Is your App receiving any link in UIApplicationDelegate's openURL: method? Can you reproduce the issue with quick-start App https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-ios/tree/master/dynamiclinks ?
I have implemented iOS universal links to my app and everything is working fine when link is send to email and triggered from mail app, but not works when triggered from gmail app (opens link in embedded browser). I find out that some other app links such as Youtube or TestFlight is working from gmail app. Please help me to find out what I'm doing wrong.
Universal Links only work in Gmail under very specific circumstances: the embedded webview needs to be already open, so clicking a Universal Link directly from the text of an email doesn't work. You can find a list with more information here.
It's possible YouTube and TestFlight actually aren't using Universal Links to trigger those apps. I haven't looked at them recently.
I tested the dynamic links Firebase. Configured everything in the project, the implementation did exactly like the Google documentation and created links on the console. When I test in Safari it does not open the application.
Thank you
iOS 9+
Due to the limitations on the iOS platform, Firebase Dynamic Links must rely on Apple's Universal Link system to open the app directly from a link when it is installed. One of the constraints placed on Universal Links is that the app-open behavior is only triggered from a user's click and not by a redirect or copy/paste into Safari.
We have found it very challenging to test Universal Links in the simulator and pretty much always use a real device for this type of thing. Basic steps: install app > SMS link to your test device > click link > observe app open.
iOS 8 and prior
iOS versions prior to 9 handle opening the app from a Dynamic Link through Safari, so if the app is not opening when you copy/paste the link into Safari then some setup is incomplete. Please review your Firebase project for information and confirm that your bundle IDs/custom schemes match on the project page, in your link, and in your app; be sure that the bundle ID is listed in URL Types in your Xcode project setup along with any custom scheme you wish to use.
