Deep linking is a very powerful tool. It allows you to communicate between apps. Think about Ride-sharing/Food delivery apps. Some have one app for drivers and a different app for customers. React Navigation makes the feature easy to implement. Are there any other React Navigation topics you would like to see me cover?

How can I get a query param from a deep linking? like: myapp://users?name=test

Hi, Thank you! It works but params are showing undefined.

{"key": "Profile-Qg4jxnpjL5D3dScF0AOkh", "name": "Profile", "params": undefined}

I have a question when I get this link in a mobile message how can I open it. Because it is not a link and not highlighted and not clickable. Then how can I click on it and open the app. I am using this link to make the user invite like feature.

Thank you.. i've trying to figure out how to deep link nested tabs from few days & your video was very helpful

Once the app is opened by a deep link. Everytime I open the app, the same screen matched with the link gets opened. Is there any way to prevent it?

Hi, thank you so much, it was easy to understand and implement. i have a doubt, how to handle when the app has authentication?

I tried to do with an authenticated app, after login the page gets blank page and lose the route :(
