Sharepoint app links
Hi all
Im hoping someone will be able to help me with the Sharepoint app and when it opens links from within the app. I am running the latest version of the Sharepoint app on Android and have created a Sharepoint site on my companies Sharepoint. The site is to be used as a homepage / launch page for my department. I’ve got links to documents that are within my companies Sharepoint site but also links to websites.
The links work fine, going to the websites that the Sharepoint launch page is linked to, but they always open within a web browser within the Sharepoint app. This is fine until anyone leaves the Sharepoint app - maybe to look at a photo or access another app. When you return to the Sharepoint app, the web browser that the link opened in has closed and the Sharepoint site is back to the homepage.
Can anyone offer any help or advice?
