I am using the URI format http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=<package_name>
described in Linking to Your Apps on Google Play in order to open the app in Android Market or Google Play to install it. But it only opens it in the browser as it would do it on the desktop. And when Install
is clicked it asks the user to sign-in to install.
How can I link the app in Google Play so the user can install it?
Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications
and clear the defaults for the browser to ensure that isn't causing the problem. If that doesn't work: What device do you have? Have you tried typing the URL directly into the browser and seeing what happens? Where is this link appearing, exactly? (On a web page or in another app?) – Matthew Read Apr 23 '12 at 22:46http
