What is the AmazonApp store alternative for market:// URL to open an app page (for rating purposes)

235 views Asked by At

In my android app I do give users an option to rate my app (a 'rate me' button within the app menu). For GooglePlay version I use the market:// URL scheme to open the GooglePlay app. For an app build that reaches Amazon I do open an http:// url that shows my app on Amazon Store ... but I do wonder if there is a better way. A way to open Amazon AppStore directly using an Intent.

Thanks in advance.

Ahhhh... as often, I finally managed to google the answer gew minutes after rasing a question:

Trying it right now.

Works like charm, though crashes if AppStore is not available on device. I will put it in a Try/Catch and use the second link format if first attempt fails.
