-For example c:geo will register for links starting with ''http://coord.info/GC'' which is e.g. used in mails sent by geocaching.com and target a certain cache listing. Clicking on this link in any app and selecting c:geo as target app, will directly open the cache details of the linked cache in c:geo.+For example c:geo will register for links starting with ''http://coord.info/GC'' which is used in mails sent by geocaching.com to their users and target a certain cache listing. Tapping on this link in any app and selecting c:geo as target app, will directly open the cache details of the linked cache in c:geo. The same applies for geocaching related links of other geocaching platforms.

 +When being asked which app to use to open these links, you can also select c:geo as default app for this link type. Afterwards your device will directly start c:geo when such a link is tapped.

 +The downside of assigning c:geo with all geocache related links as default is, that (depending on your device and Android version) using the ''Open in browser'' function of c:geo might now only open c:geo itself.\\ \\ 
 +You can avoid that, by activating the [[.:mainmenu:settings#cache_details|Chrome Webview]] feature in c:geo. Additionally our [[https://faq.cgeo.org#open-in-browser|FAQ]] also describes different methods to resolve this problem (e.g. in case you do not use the Google Chrome browser on your device).
