Launching other apps from within Survey123

Question

We would like to be able to launch 2 different mobile apps (Recreation Compass and Avenza Maps) from within Survey123 so less tech-savvy staff can more directly access on-line and off-line maps. Is this possible? I saw posts regarding launching Survey123 from other apps, but not the other way around. Thanks.

Hi Jhon,

I've the same question. I want to launch Open camera for android from survey123 using url shchema, but I can't find the URL to open this app.
Although what really interests me is open an alternative camera (open camera app) instead off Survey123 default camera.

Thanks.

Hi Andrew

We would need to whitelist the app our end. We have not formalised the process for this yet. But I can open an issue for review. What is the app and what is the url used to launch the app?

Thanks

John
