I Have an issue with Firebase Dynamic Link.
I'm testing with Google Chrome. In case I put the link into an href it works with no problems and the link opens my Android app.
In case I put the link into a JavaScript that redirects the user to the Dynamic Link it does not work: it's like Google Chrome does not find the Android app installed and opens the Google Play instead (that is the default action if the app is not installed).
Does anybody had this same issue?

App not installed. Clicking to firebase dynamic link lead to browser and open web content.
I am using this dynamic link: https://market.page.link/?link=https://market.kz/cabinet
I followed this doc: https://firebase.google.com/docs/dynamic-links/create-manually
I tried specify afl and apn but it didnt help.
The reason seems not be under developpers control. I had this problem too because i was always testing with the same app when opening the firebase dynamic link (Skype mobile).
I could not tell you exactly which app are causing this problem, but i can tell you that if you open a firebase dynamic link using skype in your Android device (strangely, it works fine with iOs), it will redirect to your browser at the Google play page.
You should try using another mobile app and open the link and see if it works. I tried facebook messenger and telegram and it works fine.

I am facing issue of deeplink. We have created a deep link for mobile application post but at google chrome mobile browser, its not opening the app screen. I saw same issues with amazon app deep links also.
At very first load it did not open app but second time it open app
Also make sure that you are tapping on the link. The chrome developers consider everything entered into the browser as user intention to open it in the browser.
So if you enter your link that you wish to deep link into your app in the chrome browser - it will open in the browser. But if you copy/paste it e.g. in notes app (social media etc.) and then tap on it - it will open your application if you have properly configured deep / app links.
I also got the same issue and I found a really good article regarding chrome browser with a deep link. (https://developer.chrome.com/docs/multidevice/android/intents/)
I first try out it with a fallback URL and the google chrome mobile browser doesn't work

But when I removed that fallback URL, it was redirected to the google play store as intended

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? ]
As you can see here, i want to change the behavior of my Firebase Dynamic Link when it is typed into the Android Browser, because right now it redirects me to the PlayStore instead of Deep Linking into the app. How can i achieve such behavior?
While creating dynamic link you need to specify either you want to open any specific URL in browser or you need to open your app.
If you need to open your app when dynamic link gets clicked then at the time of creating new dynamic link you need to choose your app from drop down list instead of giving url.
If the app is installed already it will open it otherwise redirect you towards playstore.
For opening app from deep link you need to write code into your activity that can handle the coming deep link.
Chrome doesn't open the deep links some time due to wontfix bug in Chrome 40+.
Mentioned in link for detail.
Same is the case with Firebox and other browsers.
