I want to add a button to my site so that when a user clicks it, it opens a new note on the Evernote app and saves a specific message.
I've looked everywhere for this but didn't find any info about it.
Is this possible?
Edit:
I'm sorry the question isn't very specific but I'm not really sure on where to start.
So, what I was asking was is there was a way to create a link with an href that would open in the Evernote app. So:
Is it possible to add an href that will open on the Whatsapp app? (I've seen that something like evernote:// should do it, but how's the syntax of this and does this work in both iOS and Android?)
Is there code in Javascript that would do the requested? (opening the Evernote app with a text that I would choose).
Once again, thanks for the help!

I am new to react-native/expo, so maybe because of it, I can't find any solution.
I want to open 'Instagram app' from my new app. But the Instagram should be opened on 'add' page, where the user can choose an image and upload it.
I saw examples on Instagram page examples where they are trying to do so with 'java' code, but I want to find a solution on js (expo\react-native functionality).
I found this on instagram https://www.instagram.com/developer/mobile-sharing/android-intents/
It is made on java and I can't understand how can I translate it to react-native/js
Try #1
I can open instagram by
Linking.openURL(`http://instagram.com/_u/travelerandrii`)
but, it will open the app on some page (you can set any username instead of travelerandrii)
Try #2
I saw few examples with something like
Linking.openURL(`instagram://library?AssetPath=${encodedURL}`)
But in this case on my phone, I'd get an exception and it'll say 'Error: No Activity found to handle Intent'
It seems to me that I don't do the call right for instagram app or I don't have some 'permissions'
If someone knows how to open instagram app on 'add' page, please help me :)
I'm trying to receive a link shared from another application like browser or youtube into my phonegap app. I'm using phonegap build (build.phonegap.com) to make my app.
I'd like to know how to make my app appear in the 'share' list for links.
All solutions I found online are making me edit Android Manifest or Java files, but is there a way (a plugin of sorts) I can use to make data transfer between apps possible?
There is a plugin available for PhoneGap which will handle receiving content from other application. You can use it. Following is the link to this plugin. https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-plugin-intent
If you find any issue or something else other than that functionality, you can make the custom plugin so that you will have direct access of java file from javascript.
If I understand your question correctly, you're talking about deep linking in android. The details about it can be found here
Correct me if I explain your ideas wrong: What you want to do is that you have an URL that showed up in another application (Ex: Facebook Messenger, Slack, ...) and you want after clicking it, a list of application that can be used to open that link appear and you want your app to be listed there.
But here is the problem, how can the OS knows what apps it can suggest to the end-user and what kind of link your is acceptable to your app? the answer lies in your application manifest and to be more precise, the intent-filter tag. It tells the OS what you kind of url you want and also use it to determine if the OS should suggest your app to be open by using that link for the user.
So the answer for your question about doing without editing Manifest is impossible. As for the reason why you don't want to edit your apps is unknown to me but I still suggest you to take a look at this tutorial. It still involves editing your manifest but the guide it self is clear and easy to implement.
Hope this help ^^
I am working on multi users android app and I was wondering if there any method to display a specific facebook post inside the app and when the users click on the post he'll be directed to the facebook app then he can "like or share .. that post" and go back to my app
I've been searching a couple of week for method to do that but I can't find any method to do it. If you know any method to do it please tell me.
Looking for the same answer myself.
Ended up in sending the link of the post to my app, along with the post-text and image if any. Display the post and image according to you will and redirect the user to the link on click on either the image or the text. If the Facebook app is installed on the device, it will automatically ask you if you need to go to the app. You can design the app to show the image and text one below another to achieve the (near fb) style you need.
This is just a workaround to achieve the feature. I could not find a solution to achieve embedding post in android, the way it can be achieved on the web
I've been searching how to make an application appear in the Gallery share menu but I haven't find anything. There's a similar question here in SO but it hasn't been answered (link: How to let my app show up as a gallery?).
So, summing up:
I am trying to make a Whatsapp emoji application and I'd like to provide my users a direct access to the app via whatsapp, and the best way of doing it that I've seen is what other emoji apps in the market do, as you can see in the following image:
I'm pretty sure it's achieved via intent-filters or something like that but I haven't found any solution.
Thank you in advance!
Hallo Developers,
is it possible to start a activity with a link from a Email like in Iphone SDK and start this aktivity with params.
Iphone example:
Appname:///?param1=value1¶m2=value2
It appears to be possible - check these other answers on stackoverflow:
How to implement my very own URI scheme on Android
Android Respond To URL in Intent
Not to my knowledge in stock Android. However they've made a link scheme that will open up the Market application to a specific page, so this is possible. I would think however that in order to set something like that up the app you are wanting to start from link would have to be listening for clicks on that specific type of link and tell the system that it can handle them. I have no idea how you'd go about implementing that though, and it would only be able to start specific apps that were designed that way.
Try content://com.user.package.ActivityClass/. I haven't tried it so I am not sure if it will work though.
