I'm developing an iOS app and would like to offer to open web links in the Microsoft Edge app if the user has it installed. While the app will open with the microsoft-edge:
scheme the result is that the app attempts to go to the full passed URL, microsoft-edge:
protocol and all. That obviously isn't a valid address so it just displays an error.
The URL schemes for opening a link in Chrome or Firefox are well documented but I can't find anything for Edge. Is it possible to do this, or does the Edge app not support it at the moment?
Finding an App's Main URL Scheme Name First, you have to download the IPA file for the app, which requires macOS and Apple Configurator 2. When you finally find the IPA, you have to turn it into a ZIP file, show the contents of the app package, then hunt for the specific PLIST file that contains the scheme names.
Step 1: Launch the Microsoft Edge app. Step 2: At the top-right, click More button, then click Settings. Step 3: In Open Microsoft Edge with a drop-down box, select Specifics page or pages. Enter a URL that you want open automatically in the box below the drop-down list, then hit Enter to add it.
Browse on the go with the new Microsoft Edge for Android and iOS devices. Microsoft Edge offers better protection and privacy, and can sync your favorites, passwords, and more across your desktop and mobile devices.
Use:
microsoft-edge-http://
or microsoft-edge-https://
