I am developing a responsive website and it will have a login button. This login button should redirect to an application installed on the users phone.

Is it possible to create an html/css button and once clicked, it opens up an installed application on your mobile whether its android or ios ?

Many thanks for your help guys !

Here is a link to some of apple's in-app url schemes, not all of the apps have schemes, but you might be able to find them in the developer notes of whatever app you're linking to.

    While this link may answer the question, it is better to include the essential parts of the answer here and provide the link for reference. Link-only answers can become invalid if the linked page changes. – Marcel Gwerder Apr 08 '14 at 16:27
