Facebook share button on mobile does not open the app

Open Jhonan321 opened this issue 6 years ago • 7 comments

Hello, first of all, thank you for your work making us easier to share content with the component, I have been trying only with the demo link from my cellphone and the only one button that doesn't work opening the native app is the Facebook share button, with Twitter, LinkedIn and Email share button worked (the only ones we need right now), but with Facebook button did not, I saw in my android configuration and asked to test this from a couple of friends cell phones, and they told me the same, it is opening in a new tab in chrome mobile, and not in the facebook app, is there a way to solve this?

Thank you in advance

It's not opening Facebook app but it's opening a new browser window with an option "Share with your Facebook App". Clicking that would then open your facebook app.
