You might be missing CategoryBrowsable. Try this:

[IntentFilter ( 
    new [] { Intent.ActionView }, 
    Categories = new [] { Intent.CategoryDefault, 
    Intent.CategoryBrowsable }, 
    DataScheme = "superduperapp", 
    DataHost = "my_code_is_here")]

Also, remember that you can easily test your intents via adb:

adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d superduperapp://my_code_is_here
