Intent or url for opening Bing app calls Edge not Bing

Copper Contributor

Hello, I started experimenting with my Android app to include a simple functionality to send a question to the Bing chat.

I have the Bing app installed on Android and I tried many versions of my code for launching the app.

The Edge app is opened instead. The best that I can do is succeeding in starting Edge and then Bing.

I did not even know it was possible that an intent called two apps.

I used the right package name for the Bing app, the correct url, the correct parameters for the intent, but I think that Edge and Bing app are conflicting with intents.

When the Bing app opens it does not open the chat but I have to switch.

I would like to have a code snippet that certainly opens Bing and does not open Edge, and that leads to the answer in the chat.

I know this is probably a bug, but I also suspect that it is deeply inside Edge to take care of those intents or urls.

So I ask if this will be fixed, and when.

I also ask for a solution that is stable so that the package names or the intent or the url do not change in time.

Is someone eager to answer this question? (also iOS info are appreciated)

Thanks in advance
