Description

Matrix room urls opened in a browser (Safari) will open the iOS app store on 11.3.1 to the Riot app 0.6.15 even though it is already installed on iPad 2017 model. Selecting a room from a browser will not open/add it within Riot app.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Safari-to-App-Store flow described for iOS 11.3.1 on the listed iPad and inspect the app's room URL handling. Done means selecting a Matrix room URL in Safari opens or adds the room in the installed Riot app instead of opening the App Store.
