how to open an apk file from a webpage in php

Question

I created an android application that reads the qr code, collects data and opens a web page in php where the data is collected through the $ _GET function, once the script is finished I would like the application to reopen in automatic. is there any function or method in php that makes me automatically open an apk app installed in the device? if it can't be done in php, how could i do?
