How to open an app with the iOS11 integrated qrcode reader

I want to use the new in-build qrcode reader in the iOS camera to open an app.

I cannot find the right documentation in the API.

Thanks for your help

Best Regards Christian

I'v just tested with various URLs. It seems if the URL is http the Camera app opens Mobile Safari. If you know the target app URL (which is declared in the Info.plist) you can open the app with QR codes.

(ex) youtube://user/Apple --> Opens Youtube app
