在 iOS 上启动 Facebook Messenger 的自定义 URL

Question

How can I launch FaceBook Messenger (if installed) with a compose Windows to a specific FB ID.

If messenger is not installed, can we launch FaceBook app and have the compose Windows open to a specific FB ID.

In the rare instance if no Facebook apps are installed, can we launch mobile Safari with the compose window?

Answer 1

The URL scheme is fb-messenger://user-thread/{user-id} . I just build my app with fb-messenger URL scheme as Viewer and trapped the URL on the UIApplication delegate. The user-id parameter is long integer one, as in https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/user/

Answer 2

Just use https://m.me/USER_ID .

This will deep link the user to the native Messenger app if available and start a conversation with the user identified by its USER_ID .

If the native app is not available on the device, it will open the messenger web app in a new browser.

Answer 3

You can only launch an installed app using the Custom -URL. But you cannot check whether the app is installed or not (Second part of your question.) Reason: If it would have been possible to check the installed apps in iOS, One can then create app which will get information of all installed apps.
