Bug Report

Problem

In the info.plist, it includes hereunder,
<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key> <array> ... <string>comgooglemaps</string> ... </array>

window.location.href="comgooglemaps://?saddr=28,120&daddr=31,121&directionsmode=driving";
The message "Failed to load webpage with error: unsupported URL" was in Xcode and it failed to launch google map app.

But I copied "comgooglemaps://?saddr=28,120&daddr=31,121&directionsmode=driving" and pasted it in safari.
It works.( It notify us whether the google map app shall be launched or not. if ok, the google map app is launched...)

Any further settings are required?

What is expected to happen?

window.location.href="comgooglemaps://?saddr=28,120&daddr=31,121&directionsmode=driving";
and launch the google map app

What does actually happen?

Did you add an allow-intent tag in your config.xml?

The behaviour for launching other apps from URLs is complicated and inconsistent. I suspect this might be due to trying to open it via JavaScript with window.location.href.

@75341704 Out of curiosity, if you add a link to your app with the Google Maps URL and tap it, does it launch the map app properly?
Something like this:

<a href="comgooglemaps://?saddr=28,120&daddr=31,121&directionsmode=driving">Test link to open map</a>
