The Issue

In order to open a video that someone shares with you in the app, you need to find the id of the video on odysee, then type it (letter for letter) in the app search bar.

Steps to reproduce

1.Open an odysee or lbry.tv
2.There is no prompt or option to open the media in the app

Expected behaviour

The media should be able to be opened in the lbry app

Actual behaviour

The browser gives no option to 'open in app'

System Configuration

  • Device:Samsung galaxy s10+
  • Android version:11

Anything Else

Looks like this is the way you do it: https://developer.android.com/training/app-links

Any link for the domain open.lbry.com or lbry.tv, and the regional versions of it, is intercepted by the Android OS, LBRY Android registers itself as the app to open content for those domains so Android will request LBRY Android to open that content.

Great, lbry.tv lets me open in app, but odysee still needs to be added

Now LBRY.tv is retired, this feature is even more necessary
