| <?php } | |
| // if iPad there's no iPad Instagram App, so launch in the browser | |
| else if($iPad){ ?> | |
| <a href="https://instagram.com/jamesbavington/" target="_blank">Follow me on Instagram</a> | |
| <?php } | |
| // if Android launch the Instagram Android App | |
| else if($Android){ ?> | |
| <a href="instagram://user?username=jamesbavington">Follow me (Launch Android App)</a> | |
| <?php } | |
| // for any other device, just load the Instagram Website | |
| else { ?> | |
| <a href="https://instagram.com/jamesbavington/" target="_blank">Follow me on Instagram</a> | |
| <?php } ?> |
Its also possible by just adding the link without "https://" (e.g instargam.com/username) opens the app directly.
