Capture intents for "Continue to Chat" links on web browser

[timonoj]

Hi!

Just wanted to thank you for the hard work, seems you finally fixed (at least for me) the long troublesome bug of asking to update... I wanted to ask, would it be possible to implement a way to get your whatsapp to register as the default app for "Continue to Chat" whatsapp links on the browser, which are supposed to open in the whatsapp app?

Thanks!

This should already be working. If I use a https://wa.me/[number] link, for example, the browser asks me if I want to open that link in Altus.

...it doesn't seem to capture them on my KDE Neon desktop... How can I make sure it does? Thanks!

I would try using something like AppImageLauncher (https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher). I use Manjaro KDE and I think that is already integrated with it. Just creating a desktop entry for the AppImage might suffice as well. See https://docs.appimage.org/reference/desktop-integration.html. Also, make sure you're on the latest version of Altus, of course :)

If you use AppImageLauncher you don't need to create the desktop entry manually. I find it easier to manage updates with it as well.
