links not working

[sacred cloud]

Hi when I click on a link to an app it takes me to the website instead of the actual app how can I fix that

[limpid glacier]

Hm, do you have the app installed? (For whichever link your clicking)

[sacred cloud]

Yes

It’s every single app except a select few

[limpid glacier]

Do you have one in specific?

[sacred cloud]

Wdym?

[limpid glacier]

Like what’s one of the apps that you’re having the issue with?

[sacred cloud]

Every single app besides WEBTOON

[limpid glacier]

I meant can you provide one specific app? YouTube, Safari, etc..

[sacred cloud]

For example I click on link someone sends on discord and instead of saying open this in YouTube? It just makes to the website

[limpid glacier]

Oh does it open in a In-app browser?

[sacred cloud]

Wdym?

[limpid glacier]

You see it in the webpage format, but you haven’t left Discord

That kind of thing

[sacred cloud]

No it takes me in to the actual wesbite

I’ll live u an example

[limpid glacier]

That would help

[limpid glacier]

Some sites don’t always auto forward to the app. You can click open in the top right

[sacred cloud]

But it’s with that with every app

[limpid glacier]

I’m not to sure, it could just be the way those websites have their backend setup to do.

I have some websites that auto forward to the app, but most don’t

It wasn’t like that with my old iPad :[

[limpid glacier]

Is your new iPad running the newest software?

[sacred cloud]

I mean it is a iPadOS 17.4.1

[sacred cloud]

If that’s what u meant

[limpid glacier]

Oh you’re up to date.

Well. I’m not sure what else then

Try to hold on the link and press Open in TikTok

If that didn’t work try to press on Open in the bottom of the address bar
