Open iOS App by http:// link

I found a lot of tutorials about opening an app by a custom url scheme like:

myappname://

Thats nice but it would be great to open an app by registering the real app domain over the http link like

http://www.myappdomain.com/blablabla

So - for example - if a visitor comes to a webpage (on her/his mobile) it is normally opened in the browser, excepts the installed app is listening to the opened URL and opens itself instead of the browser.

How is this done (i've seen this at another app). Any help would be great. Thanks in advance!

It is a new feature in iOS9. It is explained in the WWDC15 talk Seamless linking to your App.

You could also add a small piece of javascript to each page that opens your custom URL-scheme.
