In our App we have a need to open Apple Developer App from our iOS App to guide user to Developer App. But looks like there is no confirmed URL Scheme provided. Can you help on this.
URL Scheme For Apple Developer App
Thank you for sharing your post. I am slightly confused by your request. Are you attempting to launch an application using a URL? If the application in question supports Universal Links, you can utilize that feature. Alternatively, if deep linking is enabled, you can employ that method. If you have developed the application, you can incorporate the necessary code to achieve this functionality.

Hope this helps

Thank you for the response.
To clarify — we are trying to open the Apple Developer app (the official one from Apple — https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-developer/id640199958 ) from within our iOS app.
Just like how we can open the Settings app using:
if let url = URL(string: UIApplication.openSettingsURLString) {
UIApplication.shared.open(url)
}
—we’d like to know if there’s any public option, URL scheme, or Universal Link available to open the Apple Developer app in a similar way.
We have tried using UIApplication.shared.open() with possible URLs like appledeveloper:// and https://developer.apple.com/, but neither seems to open the app.
Could you please confirm if there’s any supported way to launch the Apple Developer app programmatically, or if it’s not currently possible?
Thank you!
