Metamask Mobile window.open() redirect

[0xfcks]

We want to redirect users to a custom URL within metamask mobile browser.

Using window.open(url) does not appear to be working in the metamask mobile browser.

We also tried redirecting to the users device browser using window.open(url, “_system”) but that did not work either.

How can we allow users to open a redirect link from within the metamask mobile browser?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions/guidance.

Hi!,

Welcome to the MM community.

Check out these docs, linking you to the start of the mobile section -

Unfortunately the mobile section is missing a real E2E for linking with a mobile app.

However I cannot trigger this after the connection gets back…

function testRedirect() {
// Redirect here but it does not work.
window.open(‘intent: THE_URL#Intent;end’);
}

window.addEventListener(“load”, testRedirect);

Note that this works:

javascript:window.open('intent : THE_ URL #Intent; end ');

and

window.open('intent : THE_ URL #Intent; end ');

work triggered by click on link or button
