Branch links not clickable in Snapchat Android #584

Open sebaferreras opened 5 years ago

sebaferreras commented 5 years ago

I'm using the Ionic 3 Example App to test sharing a Branch link specifically via Snapchat.

When sharing a Branch link via the Snapchat Android app, the link is not clickable and because of that, it doesn't allow the user to open the app.

When sharing any other link, like https://www.google.com the link is clickable in Snapchat and it opens the website as expected.

Please notice that this issue doesn't happen on iOS.

Logged a ticket for this one.

Appears to be an issue in the Android layer, rather than Cordova. Putting it into the Android teams backlog.

@sebaferreras We're reaching out to our contact at Snapchat to figure out how they determine which deeplinks should not be clickable.

@sebaferreras We got confirmation from Snapchat they are blocking it. We're working on a fix server side.

Awesome, thank you @echo-branch!
