Android 14 Applink or Dynamic Link not working after upgrading to v.25

Samsung Internet

Description
We have been using Dynamic Link for our application to deep link to our native app.
After the newest update of the Samsung Internet V.25.0.0.41, we have not been able to get the link to work.

We have a Single Page Application that uses Dynamic Link to navigate to our native app, the flow requires that the app comes back to the browser and completes a transaction.

The only issue after upgrading, is that when navigating from the browser to the app, the browser executes a reload of the active tab, and the session is now lost.

Scenarios:

The failed scenario can be described by the following:

  1. User starts a session in the browser
  2. User clicks on a button to be navigated to the app (Dynamic Link)
  3. User get navigated to the app
  4. User completes flow in app and get redirected to the browser
  5. The browser has reloaded tab and the session is lost.

The normal scenario can be described by the following: (Working fine in Chrome)

  1. User starts a session in the browser
  2. User clicks on a button to be navigated to the app (Dynamic Link)
  3. User get navigated to the app
  4. User completes flow in app and get redirected to the browser
  5. The User completes the transaction in the browser

Other investigation:

  • With regular web link the SPA can normal navigate to the new link without reloading the previous tab.
  • We have also tried with App Link, the same issue occurs

Hi @nelson7896mari

Thank you for the reply, and thank you for your suggestions.

We have investigated all alternatives, and we can conclude that this is only an issue on Samsung Internet browser, and only on the newest version 25. it is still working fine on the devices that has not yet updated their Samsung Internet Browser.

The issue occurs on bothe App Link and Dynamic Link. since the issue is only shown on Android, these are the only to way of making deep link. - The Universal Link is made for IOS, which is working fine also.

We do need Samsung internet Support on this matter.
The link you have send is not correct, hoping that this forum has developers connected to this page, and they perhaps can help with enlighten us with the new update and the side effects that perhaps can be handled somehow.

Kind regards
Chakib

You have a valid problem and can open a suport ticket through the portal, under the help tab, contact Samsung.

The reply for you, above, is a spammer, and they will be removed from the forum shortly. Their only goal is to imbed spam links in the forum.

[FIXED]
It seems like the new version 25.0.1.3 fixes the issue we are having.
Is it possible to get a date when Samsung are releasing this version to the public?
