I am trying to open a user's profile in the native Facebook app on ios, if installed. The app is built on Cordova/Ionic and I use ngCordova inAppBrowser plugin.
Twitter links, for example, work just fine with a regular web twitter link (https://twitter.com/[username]). Facebook on the other hand, do not. I have tried many different variations:
None worked.
What am I doing wrong? Is it even possible with the current version of the Facebook app?
Thanks
Just use: 'fb://profile'
In my case worked for both Android and iOS:
$scope.openFb = function() {
$window.open('fb://profile', "_system");
};
