question

Hello,​

Do you want to click the hyper link in the HTML page, then invoke your application? Am I right?

If yes.

For Android, you can use IntentFilter and set DataScheme to achieve it. For example, my android package name is com.companyname.app24, I add a IntentFilter above MainActivity like following code. Set the package name to DataScheme, set Categories for CategoryBrowsable, it means that Activities that can be safely invoked from a browser

[IntentFilter(new[] { Android.Content.Intent.ActionView }, 
    Categories = new[] { Android.Content.Intent.CategoryDefault, Android.Content.Intent.CategoryBrowsable }, 
    DataScheme = "com.companyname.app24")]
    public class MainActivity : global::Xamarin.Forms.Platform.Android.FormsAppCompatActivity

Then you can add a hyper link set the href property in your html page like following code.

href="com.companyname.app24://host/"

For iOS, you can try to set Custom URL Scheme , it could achieve the same result.

Best Regards,
