URL scheme for the Google Street View App (Not Google Maps)

Question

I\'m using Google Cardboard with the Street View App. I want to be able to create a link that sends users directly into the Street View App to view a specific location.

Answer 1

You can launch the Google Maps for iOS application in street view mode with the comgooglemaps URL Scheme by setting the mapmode parameter to streetview.

Objective c

 if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"comgooglemaps://"]]) {

       [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"comgooglemaps://?center=46.414382,10.013988&mapmode=streetview"]]];    
  }

Swift 4

if UIApplication.shared.canOpenURL(URL(string: "comgooglemaps://")!) {


   guard let url = URL(string: "comgooglemaps://?center=46.414382,10.013988&mapmode=streetview") else {
            return //be safe
        }

    if #available(iOS 10.0, *) {
        UIApplication.shared.open(url, options: [:], completionHandler: nil)
    } else {
        UIApplication.shared.openURL(url)
    }

 }
