Not able to get QR code link to open my app, it always loads in browser.



I have added a intent filter in Manifest file as below -



When I have the link in as SMS message, https://pages.smart.link/abc and I click on that, it shows disambiguous dialog with my app as one of the options to open it.



<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data
android:host="pages.smart.link"
android:pathPrefix="/abc"
android:scheme="https" />
</intent-filter>


But if generate this link through QR code, it loads the URL in web browser - tested on Samsung Galaxy S8+



SMS option does NOT work if I have host as "myapp" with final url as myapp://pages.smart.link/abc
myapp host works fine if launch it through command line as below -




adb shell am start -W -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d
"myapp://pages.smart.link/abc" com.abc.myapp




<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data
android:host="pages.smart.link"
android:pathPrefix="/abc"
android:scheme="myapp" />
</intent-filter>
