Reply to Universal Link works directly but not via redirect on iOS 18 and above
Hi @DTS Engineer , according to the Apple documentation: "Redirection is allowed, although not preferred, when opening universal links from another app. If the link tapped by the user is not a universal link but redirects to one, the user will be routed through the web browser to the app." It doesn't state that a redirect will prevent the universal link from working. Can you please clarify should we completely stop using redirects link in order to work because yes without redirect link its working but we have a business requirement we need redirect links ?

According to apple documentation: “Redirection is allowed, although not preferred, when opening universal links from another app. If the link tapped on by the user is not a universal link but redirects to one, the user will be routed through the web browser to the app.” In our case, we are using a marketing URL: http://ip2.loyalty.logansroadhouse.com/ls/click?... This URL redirects to: https://dl.punchh.com/ The https://dl.punchh.com/ domain correctly hosts the AASA file, and under normal conditions, this should route the user to the installed app. However, since iOS 18.1, instead of opening the installed app, the user is redirected to the App Store, even though the universal link is valid and properly configured. This behavior appears to contradict the documentation and breaks our intended user experience. Could you please clarify if there has been a change in how universal link redirection is handled in iOS 18.1+? And if so, is there a workaround or recommended approach for marketing links that redirect to universal links?

The problem is with the redirect url. Does apple stopped supporting deeplink via redirect url ?
