Like many former Mint customers who needed to transition to Credit score Karma, I’m pissed off by what number of steps it takes to get to the info I need to see. Not too long ago Credit score Karma despatched me a promotional e-mail with a button that took me on to the Transactions web page within the app. I wish to make an icon on my iOS house display screen that does the identical.
I extracted the URL from the e-mail. It’s:
https://www.creditkarma.com/u/networth/transactions
Once I click on on this in iOS, it takes me on to the Transactions web page within the app, as I hoped [1].
To create an iOS house display screen icon for a web site, it’s essential open the web site in Safari, however the first problem was that after I opened the above URL in Safari, it redirected to the Intuit login web page as an alternative and that web page didn’t appear to have the flexibility to open the app.
I discovered that if I turned on Airplane mode [2], I might open the hyperlink in Safari (it will not load, clearly, however neither would it not redirect). Once I created a Dwelling Display screen icon from that, it virtually works: it takes me to an Intuit login web page with the next banner providing to open the app:
Once I click on “Open” I’m taken to the Transactions web page, which is what I would like, however is just not the identical one-click conduct I acquired from the unique hyperlink.
So my query is, can anybody counsel a strategy to get this to work in a single click on?
Footnotes:
[1] Clarification: it might take me to the login web page the primary time, however as soon as I click on the “Open” then subsequent clicks will take me on to the app. The icon, nonetheless, at all times requires the additional step of visiting the login web page.
[2] The next query appears to counsel the identical workaround https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15883736/how-to-have-a-custom-url-for-an-icon-on-the-ios-home-screen. Additionally they counsel an “iPhone Configuration Utility”, however I am unable to discover a hyperlink to that wherever!
