Applinks

  • Navigate to a place.
  • Click [map] and you should see the place marked on a map.
  • Click [pictures] and you should be taken to the picture list to browse or add a picture.
  • Click [comments] and you should be taken to the comment list to browse or add a comment.
  • Click application links to browse content.

All applications have web options and the following have android apps with the intent support we need as well:

app android web
foursquare yes yes
twitter yes yes
yelp yes yes
tripadvisor yes yes

If they are installed on the device, you should be given the option to browse using either the android application or the browser. Each option should be tried to confirm they work properly.

Overflow applinks

  • Navigate to a place with lots of applinks. If a place has more applinks that our limit, an overflow link is shown.
  • Click the overflow link and you should see a list with all the available applinks. Clicking a list item should trigger the same results as clicking a link.

App install via applinks

  • On a phone without twitter installed, navigate to a place that has a twitter applink. The applink should show the google play store icon in the lower left corner.
  • Click on the twitter applink. You should see in install dialog with the option to install or cancel.
  • Click [install] and the twitter application page should open with the option to install.
  • Install the twitter application, launch it and signin.
  • Return to the aircandi application.
  • Click the twitter applink again. You should now have the option to open using the browser or the twitter app.
