Linking the Developer Page at the appStore from an iPhone App

So I know how to open an app page on the appStore from within my iPhone app.

Is there a way to open my company's page? On iTunes on my mac I can do that, but using that URL in the iPhone I can't (or I'm not doing it right).

Thanks in advance.

I used such URL in iOS 8, 9:

itms-apps://itunes.apple.com/developer/tivogi/id507966848

where tivogi is the developer's account name and id507966848 is the your developer id.

You can find correct link for you in the any browser: just go to developer page, copy url, and change scheme to itms-apps

this prevents it to do little dance it does normally

 NSString *iTunesLink = @"itms-apps://itunes.com/apps/companyname/";
 [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:iTunesLink]];

This is a great article on this subject: http://bjango.com/articles/ituneslinks/

Quote from the article:

http://itunes.com/apps/developer — Search for all apps by developer

It’s also possible to link to all apps by one developer, but there’s a catch. On a Mac or a PC, this will open iTunes and land on a developer’s page. On an iPhone or iPod touch it’ll do a bit of a dance, opening MobileSafari, then iTunes, then the App Store app. Not ideal, a bit ugly and slow, but it gets there in the end.

If you’d like to hide the redirections and speed up the process, Apple recommend using NSURLConnection.
