PROBLEM

ArcGIS Indoors iOS app does not launch when selecting a link to a shared location

Last Published: April 25, 2020

Description

When selecting a link to a shared indoor location on an iOS device that has the ArcGIS Indoors app installed, the location opens in the Indoors web app instead of the mobile app.

Cause

The following are possible causes for the issue:

  • The ArcGIS Indoors web app is not deployed in the default portal apps folder. Refer to Deploy the website for Indoors for details.
  • The iOS device is running version 12.2.

In both cases, the Indoors web app opens directly in the default browser set on the iOS device, instead of the Indoors iOS app being launched.
