I need my application opens when clicking on a link. for this I read that I must use a URL scheme. The link must have the form myapp://parameters.
I read every post on this subject, but when I send an email with "myapp://addUser/?id=22" and I open from chrome (on my phone), it is not clickable.
My manifest:
 <activity
            android:name="com.example.SplashActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name"
            android:screenOrientation="portrait" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                    <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
            <intent-filter>
             <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
                <data android:scheme="myapp" android:host="com.example"/>
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
My class:
public class SplashActivity extends FragmentActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
   setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash);
    Intent intent = getIntent();
    if (Intent.ACTION_VIEW.equals(intent.getAction())) {
        Uri uri = intent.getData();
        String id = uri.getQueryParameter("id"); 
    }
}
Content of the mail to test the code:
myapp://addUser/?id=22

UPDATE
I think the problem is the mail body, but I don't know how I can test this.
Some app developers publish their universal URLs, and some do not. Not every app has a universal URL. (I.e., It may not be possible to create a 3rd-party app tile in Campus Cloud Studio to launch your app.)
URL Schemes are an advanced configuration option used to define a non-standard link format that will only open in your app and not the device browser e.g. youruniquestring://yoursite.com/path This functionality is helpful in authentication redirect flows or for a more seamless user experience.
In your manifest
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
        <data android:scheme="myapp" android:host="com.example"/>
    </intent-filter>
you define android:host="com.example", so you should modify link URL :
myapp://addUser/?id=22       //error
myapp://com.example/?id=22   //correct
then it can work!!
