app launch using custom scheme showing error in safari in ios

Question

I tried to launch my native app from safari using custom scheme like myapp://.
This is working fine when app is installed, but when app is uninstalled ,safari is displaying:
page cannot found popup .
My requirement is i need to redirect to some page,let's say apple store.
How to do this?
Any suggestions?

Is there any update on this?

You can't, since the app handling the custom URL scheme is no longer available iOS does no longer know how to handle the custom URL.

I faced the same issue and appending a question mark (?) at the end seems to resolve it. It was working fine till ios5 but needs this question mark since ioss 6. While trying to launch you should say myapp://?parameter1=xyz

Hope this helps.
