            whatsAppIntent.setType("text/plain");

            String text = "myapp://openapp?type=banner&id=10";

            PackageInfo info=pm.getPackageInfo("com.whatsapp", PackageManager.GET_META_DATA);

            Toast.makeText(mContext, "WhatsApp not Installed", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
       }

I don't know if it's possible. It may be that WhatsApp only highlights links with certain protocols (i.e. http, https). In this case, you could go for a work-around if you are depending on this feature:

Let the user share a link to http://your-server.com/forward?type=banner&id=10

On your-server.com, you re-direct the user within the forward file (or via server configuration) to myapp://openapp?type=banner&id=10.

Of course this is not pretty, but browsers can handle these app-links. This will not be pretty, since the user will at first open a browser to process your http link, from which the user will be redirected.

Exactly the same problem I'm facing atm. Using Android App-Links seems to be the correct solution. From the docs: https://developer.android.com/training/app-links/verify-site-associations.html#request-verify

The difference between deep links and app links:

• A deep link is an intent filter that allows users to directly enter a specific activity in your Android app. (You tried to use this one, but Whatsapp doesn't recognize this as a link)
• An Android App Link is a deep link based on your website URL that has been verified to belong to your website. (This is a normal http(s) link, it should be recognized as thus everywhere)
