It should work.  It is done by registering custom URI schemes in your app:

(within the Info.plist, which you handle in AIR with your app descriptor XML iPhone/InfoAddtions)

If you get your custum URI scheme registered properly, you should be able to call within a different app:

import flash.net.navigateToURL;

navigateToURL(new URLRequest("customAppURI://myapp"))

Hello,

Did you manage to get an AIR iOS app to open another AIR iOS app via a URL scheme? I am currently requiring this functionality. The documentation I have read so far suggests that an AIR app can receive and respond to a URL scheme, but that AIR apps cannot send URL schemes to launch other apps, due to security restrictions.

Can you advise?

Kind regards

Simon
