Open links in app of choice (iOS/Mac)

tychoregter

I would love to have an option to open links from pages like Reddit or Twitter in an app of choice.

For example, I would like to have Reddit links opened in Apollo and Twitter links in Spring (or Aviary)

Those are just examples, but I can imagine there are many other apps that are not opened by default by iOS.

Apps like Opener offer a similar solution using Safari Extensions, but having this feature backed into the search engine would be even more powerful!

Other browsers do not support a feature like this, but I do think it would be yet another fantastic feature that would set Kagi apart.

tychoregter This sounds like a browser feature not a search engine feature?

Note Orion browser by Kagi has Opener app equivalent built-in.

Vlad I personally prefer Safari on iOS.

But I think a feature like this could also be implemented on a browser base. A lot of 3rd party apps use custom URL schemes (apollo:// for Apollo for exmaple). Understandably you can’t add all of those schemes yourself, so an option for users to add them manually would be great.

I can understand this may be a niche feature for power users but it would he great if you could think about it.

tychoregter This may be handled by this request https://kagifeedback.org/d/158-rewrite-rules-for-domains-ability-to-eg-translate-redditcom-into-oldredditcom/27

Still note if the browser does not support it natively like Orion or via an extension like Safari this link will not do anything.
