Link Handling Overview (Updated)

Effective link handling is essential for delivering a consistent and seamless user experience in your mobile app. Median provides a powerful set of tools to control how links are opened and interacted with, helping you optimize in-app navigation and user flow.

Link handling settings control how links on pages are displayed within your app when they are opened. You can also configure deep linking so that links pointing to your website in text messages, emails, and on other webpages open within your app.

Key Configuration Features

Link Behavior

Define how different types of links are handled: external links (device browser or associated app), in-app browser for external sites, or internal links that open in the app webview for a seamless experience.

Deep Linking and Universal Links

Open specific content directly when a user taps a link. Use deep linking and universal links to improve engagement and retention.

Custom URL Schemes

Respond to custom URL schemes (e.g. yourapp://path) for authentication flows or integration with other apps. Configure non-standard link formats in Median.

Context Menu Customization

Customize the context menu that appears when users long-press on links to enhance interaction and control what options are available.
