Q:

How to open deep link from mobile browser?

I have created a deep link for my app, myapp://video or let say i have also added uber:// but when i open these from chrome browser, it takes me to google, it does not treat this as a link, So how will user reach to the content of this link, if its not opening from browser. 
I tried this, but it opened the Google search, and not take me to the play store. 
Kindly guide me how a user can use deep link? and reach to the app by using deep link.

Manifest
<intent-filter>
    <data android:scheme="myapp" android:host="video/>
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>

A:

Chrome does not treat URI schemes entered into the address bar as active links. You need to put it inside an <a> element.
Note that while this will work, it is not a valid deep linking solution. You should investigate Chrome Intents, or a full deep linking system like Branch.io (full disclosure: I'm on the Branch team) or Firebase Dynamic Links.

A:

Seems like your app is not configured correctly.
To test deep links instead of browser you can use ADB: https://developer.android.com/training/app-indexing/deep-linking.html (look at the Test deep links section)
$ adb shell am start
        -W -a android.intent.action.VIEW
        -d <URI> <PACKAGE>

If everything will be OK, then it might be some issue with browser.
To configure you app to handle deep links, please read this: https://developer.android.com/training/app-links/index.html
If you want more information, please, post your configuration from AndroidManifest.xml: how you handle deep links.
