I assume you are dealing with a packaged app, not a hosted app? A hosted app does not have any of these problems -- if possible, use a hosted app (you can still cache it to make it perform like a packaged app). > > On iOS, apps can register with a custom URL scheme that will launch them.

The origin parameter is not yet documented. It will be supported only in Firefox OS 1.1, not 1.0 (which is the version shipping). The origin is indeed intended to solve your exact problem and you can read about it here https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=852720 The patch may also help to understand it https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-b2g18_v1_1_0_hd/rev/0aee0700f68b -Kumar > > Any thoughts you have would be much appreciated.
