Deeplink stops working after navigating to another page in internal Browser

Hi,

I’m having trouble with the internal browser and deeplinks.

Here’s the issue:

  1. If I open a page in the browser and click a deep link, the browser closes, and I return to the app as expected.
  2. But if I open a page in the browser, click a link to another site, and then click a deeplink on that second site, it doesn’t return to the app. Instead, it just follows the web link.

So, the deeplink works only on the first page I open. If I navigate to another website and try the deeplink, it doesn’t work.

“@capacitor/browser”: “^5.2.1”,
“@capacitor/core”: “^5.7.7”,

Is this a known limitation, or am I missing something?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hello, how is your deeplink configured? What is the url? Are sure you’re trying to execute a deeplink and not an universal link? They are different. If you’re trying to execute a deeplink from within a in-app browser, I am not sure if it will work… We will have to research on that.
