Button/Link to Open Google Maps (iOS)

1

From the Superhuman Docs mobile app, I would like to have a button/link that redirects the user to the Google Maps iOS app. The furthest I’ve gotten is:

  1. Clicking the button/link displays this message (screenshot below). I understand this is expected behavior, so no biggie. (Buttons opening formula-generated URLs should not warn users on mobile - #7 by Nick_HE).

  1. Clicking “Open”, redirects to an in-app webpage within the Docs app.

  2. Only after clicking, “continue” will the Google Maps app open with the per-defined address.

Currently, I’ve tried variations of this formula:
"https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=" + EncodeForURL(thisrow.Address)

Does anyone have a solution to streamline this a bit? Thanks!

I am using the pack “Google Maps Embed” and from that pack I use the formula Place(), like so:
Place("New York", zoom: 10, language: "EN")
It shows a little map with a link (open in Maps) that opens a Google Maps session without any more clicks. It is not exactly what you are asking, but it might work for you too.

@joost_mineur, thanks man. I appreciate the suggestion. It seems promising so I’ll take a whack.
