Share URLs don't open episode in native app

Open markcellus opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Description

This is a bug that seems to be introduced in https://github.com/Automattic/pocket-casts-android/pull/526. Clicking share URLs do open in the native app now. But it does not go to directly to the episode. Instead, it goes to the Podcast listing of all episodes.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

  1. Paste and go to an episode's share link into the mobile browser of your Android device (e.g. https://pca.st/yaoi883d)
  2. Watch it open in the native app
  3. Verify it opens the podcast listing and does not open the actual podcast episode

Just bumping since this is still an issue. If someone can point me to where in the code this change can be made, I'm willing to open a PR. Thanks!

I am having this too, I told a Dev yesterday & he gave it a kick, seems like after it goes down its only from that point 🤔🤔, from my understanding it's related to the backend so I don't think we can do much 😉

I tested this with a recent build, and it works now. Close this issue.
