YouTube links in Safari won't open in YouTube++ #241

Closed briankendall closed 7 years ago

briankendall commented 7 years ago

I've installed YouTube++ both via sideloading and using the method detailed on the read me page of this GitHub project. But no matter what I do, when I open a YouTube page in Safari, it just opens as a webpage in Safari rather than opening YouTube++ like what happens when the official YouTube app is installed via the app store.

I can get the page to open in YouTube++ by editing Safari's URL and manually changing the URL scheme from https:// to youtube://. But that's pretty annoying, and it'd be great if it could work like it does for the official YouTube app.

Is there any way to get that to work?

Use google chrome

I'm aware that it works in Chrome, but I strongly prefer to use Safari. And given that when the YouTube app is installed from the app store Safari does open links in the app, that suggests that there's a way to get it to work when sideloading YouTube++.

Also I just tried it in Google Chrome anyway and it still didn't work!

Youtube++ could at least include itself into iOS share dialog and accept links there Without "open in" using it is a major pain

@dmatora I've been using an app called Opener for that -- works great.

I installed the app but I still have to click on share button to open it in yt++, can you make it automatic ?
