can apps opened content inside html email ? example, can link twitter bio, facebook page, trigger sms, etc can web using url schemes ? limited open of apps or can go further, have follow button inside email or populate sms subject line , recipient.
if has experience or live example amazing
assuming you’re using url scheme links (i.e, twitter://), depends on email app link being opened in. example, default ios mail app works, gmail app doesn’t. functions supported via url scheme depends on specific app. here's list: http://handleopenurl.com.
sticking url schemes default ios apps (sms, mail) reasonably safe, third-party show nasty "cannot open url" if app not installed when link opened. apple introduced universal links ios 9 fix issue. if app supports universal links (partial list) use regular link , app open automatically if installed , fall web page if not.
if you're building own app , want support this, branch.io (full disclosure: work team) can handle of these annoying edge cases you.
