How to create links to my own apps on Samsung App Store?

Insplisity · October 2013

Hello,

is there a possibility to create links like "all our apps" and "rate this app" in Samsung App Store?

This can be easily done for Google Play and Amazon, but all I could find in regard to this is here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10342327/does-samsung-apps-support-a-uri-scheme-to-redirect-to-specific-apps

@mark Can you help, please?

@hendrixs Hmmm you could try just linking to your app using the URI format from the link you provided in an HTML Archive or from within a Custom Page:

samsungapps://ProductDetail/com.andromo.devXX.appYYY

In the future this might be something that we can allow you to target in the same way we let you target Amazon.

I've just tried it and it doesn't work for me.

Maybe I did something wrong, dunno.

I've created a Custom Page with a link, but it opens an external browser, and put the link directly in Google search.

If you could look into this, it would be great, as Samsung Apps is a major player, next to Google Play and Amazon. I really love their store, the downloads are fantastic.

I'm not sure about this one - There's not much info on the Samsung Sellers Website, although I did find this:

I can't get it to work.

This doesnt work!
Neither with html archive nor with custom page :-(
using the link (Protocol "other") samsungapps://ProductDetail/com.andromo.devXX.appYY
I get redirected to the web browser (and yes, I have samsung app store installed) instead of samsung apps.

@mark can you please look into this, since this is really important! Thank you!!!

@sylciathewitch I wasn't sure if it would work or not, just a thought. It appears as though we will have to add a targeting option in the future.

Also, when you are redirected to the browser, what URL are you sent to?

Has anyone found a solution for this?
@mark any idea when you can get the targeting option?

Thanks!

I have found that on my Samsung Galaxy Tab when I use the "web link" to my App -

It automatically opens it inside the "Samsung Apps App" - I think the very first time, it asked me to "Always open with -" "Samsung" or "Web"?

There has to be a way of directly linking to my App in the Samsung App,
