We expect this behavior to be final :) So bottom line is: link to PublicAppInfo when you want the "smart redirect", link to AppInfo when you really want AppInfo. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "orkut Developer Forum" group. To post to this group, s

Didn't know about the public info url (PublicAppInfo). Just tested and it correctly redirects to canvas if the user has the app installed. I'm a bit confused though since when the app is not installed and I go to PublicAppInfo I'm redirected to AppInfo. Is it safe to link to PublicAppInfo? I mean

It's best to attract users to the app info page. That way they will be correctly redirected. Remember that applications still have a guest mode, which happens when a user who does not have the app views it on someone else's profile (he can arrive there through the "via" link, for instance). That'

that's cool. what is better then now - attract existing/new users to the info page or canvas page? (since canvas page url is sometimes hard to detect) it will be cool also to do vice a versa: if a user lands on the canvas page and the app is not installed - she is redirected to the info page? mayb
