Hi, A few months ago, we discussed what if anything was needed to enable native-app deep linking: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-web-mobile/2015Jan/0000.html Apple iOS9 comes with “universal links”, which adds another mechanism to enable these depp links: https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/ios/documentation/General/Conceptual/AppSearch/UniversalLinks.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40016308-CH12-SW1 (via a proprietary association file, "apple-app-site-association") Compared to the Web app manifest file (that we described as our current solution in this space), it adds verification of ownership from the native side (i.e. a native app cannot claim to represent any random URI space).
