I want to generate a QR code to open the Facebook app to show my Facebook page on both android and iPhone
I found the urls it needs to be but is different for android and iPhone so was seeing if anyone knows if there is a url that works on both android and iPhone to open the Facebook app to my Facebook page?
Whats the url you got?
I never heard about facebook having different domains for ios and android.
I found a url that works on both android and ios. I now have fb://profile/pageid and I tested it on android and ios and it opens the app on both platforms after scanning the QR code

I am using Branch.io link to open my facebook page in the android app. If app is installed then open app otherwise redirect to facebook page in the browser. I am using this link in emails signature.
Currently, the link opening the facebook app in android & but opens the default facebook user newsfeed not my page. It's working fine in iOS.
I'm using the following format to open the facebook.
fb://page/?id=my_facebook_page_id
If it is working in iOS then why not in Android. Please help.
P.S.
fb://page/my_facebook_page_id seems to work
Please note that this is not the recommended method for deep linking as this URL scheme isn't officially listed on any of Facebook's documentation. This is a hacky solution based on answers to other similar questions on StackOverflow. [Reference- What are all the custom URL schemes supported by the Facebook iPhone app? ]
Facebook graph API tells me I can get a profile picture of a user using
http://graph.facebook.com/100001225634061/picture?type=large
which works fine.
But If I used the same application in iOS devices this link is not working.
For Hybrid applications, Graph url is not redirecting in iOS.
Any solution for this? Single solution should work on both the devices.
Thanks!
Don't use http. You can use the https.
https://graph.facebook.com/100001225634061/picture?type=large
I have a web page that contains a Facebook share button.
The link it shares is in following format:
www.example.com/index?id=1234&info=56789
This link is shared using Facebook plugin share button. On desktop browsers it works fine but on Android (chrome browser), when clicking the share button , the Facebook app is opened and only "www.example.com/index?id=1234" part of the link is sent to the app for sharing.
I replaced the "&" with "%26" and it fixed it, but it breaks when sharing using on desktop.
Did any one had the same problem and know the solution for this?
I have a simple cordova app that has a facebook share button that shares a url to facebook. Facebook is putting in a random photo when the mobile facebook page opens. How do I replace this?
EDIT::: It has been suggested i use og:image to show an image. I did this, but it doesn't seem to be carrying through? Any thoughts? Is this due to using Cordova vs Java somehow?
I just wanted to know if someone can explain why is this happening to me.
I am developing a mobile app using phonegap and jquerymobile and one of the features of the app is to guide the user using a navigation tool.
For iOS we have choose Waze. It is really easy to add it:
<a href=" waze://q=Adress">
and it works! It works if we run the app using safari or even if we build a native app using phonegap.
The problem comes when using Android. For android we are using Google Navigation. The code we are using is:
<a href="google.navigation:q=Adress">
It is working ok, but only if we build a native app with our htlm code using phonegap but it is not working if we run the app on Android Web Browser.
We dont want the user to install the app to use this feature...
The question is: Why? Why the html code is working ok inside a webview on a native app but it is not working on Android Browser?
I just had the same issue and used the geo URI and it is working:
Wikimedia Headquarters
for a more detailed explanation see this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geo_URI#Example
The href above will open navigation apps, such as waze on Android (just tested it on the Galaxy S4 with Waze and it is working - it also opens up the Google Maps/Navigation app, which is now a combined app).
Hope this helps! :)
