Does anyone know if possible in Air for iOS to create an app and have it also open another app created by same dev. I see apps in the appstore doing it that are created the native way but don't know if possible in Air.
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
