This library provides a streamlined solution for managing Universal Links (iOS) and App Links (Android), enabling seamless deep linking experiences across platforms. It abstracts the complexity of platform-specific behaviors, allowing developers to define and handle in-app routing logic from a platform-independent interface.

This library is available on NuGet: https://www.nuget.org/packages/AppLinks.MAUI Use the following command to install AppLinks.MAUI using NuGet package manager console:

PM> Install-Package AppLinks.MAUI

You can use this library in any .NET MAUI project compatible to .NET 8 and higher.

1. Register app link host in MainActivity by creating one or more IntentFilter with DataScheme and DataHost.
2. Create assetlinks.json file which contains Android package name(s) and sha256_fingerprints used to sign the package.
3. Deploy assetlinks.json file to root web folder .well-known.
4. Verify the app links for each package name: adb shell pm verify-app-links --re-verify {package_name}
5. Check if verification was successful: adb shell pm get-app-links {package_name}

1. Login to https://developer.apple.com, go to "Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles", select tab "Identifiers".
2. Select the app identifier which should support app links.
3. Enable the option "Associated Domains" and save the changes.
4. Update and download all dependent provisioning profiles.
5. Create Entitlements.plist file under Platforms/iOS and add associated domains (plist key: com.apple.developer.associated-domains).
6. Create apple-app-site-associate file which contains app identifiers and target URL paths.
7. Deploy apple-app-site-associate file to root web folder .well-known.

1. This plugin provides an extension method for MauiAppBuilder UseAppLinks which ensure proper startup and initialization. Call this method within your MauiProgram just as demonstrated in the AppLinksDemoApp:

   var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder()
       .UseMauiApp<App>()
       .UseAppLinks();

Inject IAppLinkHandler or use the static singleton instance IAppLinkHandler.Current in your code to get access to the main features of this library.

• IAppLinkHandler.AppLinkReceived: This event is fired as soon as an app link URL is received.
• IAppLinkHandler.ResetCache(): Clear any cached app link data. This clears the internal queue which is used to temporarily cache received app links.
