+# App Links
+
+> [!TIP]
+> This article covers a quick overview for enabling Universal/App Links. For a full description of the feature and instructions on using it in general, see the [Microsoft docs on Universal Links](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/maui/macios/universal-links) and [App Links](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/maui/android/app-links).
+
+* Universal Links (iOS) and App Links (Android) are mechanisms that allow deep linking to specific content within your application directly from external sources, such as websites or other apps.
+
+## Using Universal/App Links with Uno
+
+### iOS Universal Links
+
+1. **Update the `Main.iOS.cs` file:**
+   * Add `OpenUrl` method override in your `Main` to handle Universal Links:
+
+   ```csharp
+   // ...
+
+   public class App : UIApplication
+    {
+        public override void OpenUrl(NSUrl url, NSDictionary options, Action<bool>? completion)
+        {
+            base.OpenUrl(url, options, completion);
+
+            Console.WriteLine($"Opened URL: {url}");
+            completion?.Invoke(true);
+        }
+    }
+   ```
+
+1. **Enable Associated Domains:**
+   * Add the `Associated Domains` entitlement to your app.
+   * Update your Apple Developer Portal to include the domain in the App Identifier.
+
+1. **Configure the apple-app-site-association file:**
+   * Host this file on your server at `https://<yourdomain>/.well-known/apple-app-site-association`.
+   * Example file content:
+
+     ```json
+     {
+         "applinks": {
+             "apps": [],
+             "details": [
+                 {
+                     "appID": "<TEAMID>.<BUNDLEID>",
+                     "paths": [ "*" ]
+                 }
+             ]
+         }
+     }
+     ```
+
+### Android App Links
+
+1. **Update the `AndroidManifest.xml`:**
+   * Add an intent filter in the manifest:
+
+     ```xml
+     <activity android:name="MainActivity">
+         <intent-filter android:autoVerify="true">
+             <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
+             <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
+             <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
+             <data android:scheme="https" android:host="<yourdomain>" />
+         </intent-filter>
+     </activity>
+     ```
+
+1. **Verify the assetlinks.json file:**
+   * Host this file on your server at `https://<yourdomain>/.well-known/assetlinks.json`.
+   * Example file content:
+
+     ```json
+     [
+         {
+             "relation": ["delegate_permission/common.handle_all_urls"],
+             "target": {
+                 "namespace": "android_app",
+                 "package_name": "<PACKAGE_NAME>",
+                 "sha256_cert_fingerprints": [
+                     "<CERTIFICATE_FINGERPRINT>"
+                 ]
+             }
+         }
+     ]
+     ```
+
+1. **Handle links in `MainActivity.Android.cs`:**
+   * Override the `OnNewIntent` method in your `MainActivity` class:
+
+     ```csharp
+     protected override void OnNewIntent(Intent intent)
+     {
+         base.OnNewIntent(intent);
+
+         var data = intent.DataString;
+         Console.WriteLine($"Opened URL: {data}");
+     }
+     ```
