Help to Open website’s external links directly in their default apps

Hey everyone!

I need some advice. I’ve created an app that displays my website inside a WebView, but there’s an issue:

My website contains several social media and external links, and I want those links to open in their respective default apps (like Instagram, YouTube, WhatsApp, etc.) instead of opening inside the WebView.

Can anyone guide me on how to properly redirect these links to their default apps?

Thanks in advance! :folded_hands:

Option A

Set the webview use external browser to true

The image shows a block from a visual programming interface setting the 'Use External Browser' property of 'Web Viewer' to true. (Captioned by AI)

Option B
Activity starter

The image shows a block-based programming script from an app builder where clicking Button1 triggers an activity to view the URL https://www.google.com using Activity_Starter1. (Captioned by AI)

It allows your app to be opened through a deep link, Ashish needs to open deep links to other apps.

And you could use Sunny’s CustomWebViewer, which has a specific parameter for opening deep links.
