New app navigation pane embedded links open in Safari instead of the app on iOS

[mafaber]

Hi everyone,

the embedded links in the new app navigation pane doesn't open in the app even though it is set like that in the app options and it works fine on PC. In iOS (we tried both iPads and iPhones) it opens in Safari.

Have you find any way to work around this and make it work?

Thank you!

Hey @mafaber ,

Unless your link points to a Power BI item, it will open using the mobile browser. It is by design.

Only links to Power BI items will be opened in the app itself.

Thanks, Maya
