Is there any way to make all "https://myapp.app/xyz" links open in the generated app when clicked in Chrome browser? Right now they open in a Chrome tab just like they used to.

Hi @mblais, Please tick the Would you like app links to open internally as popups? option in (advanced options) when generating your Applicationize app: https://applicationize.me/now

Does this only work for links clicked inside the app itself? I'm trying to get any related app links to open in the app, even if they are clicked in a Chrome tab. Is that possible? App links clicked in a Chrome tab still open in Chrome.

Hi @mblais, Unfortunately that's not really possible with Applicationize.

It might be possible if you went and developed a Chrome Extension to somehow focus the Applicationize Packaged App when one of those links is clicked. But at this time, this is not something Applicationize supports out of the box.
