Link address link with GPS applications

6

Personal I have a question, I am developing an ad platform and I came across an issue here.

My advertiser signs up on the platform fills in the information puts your address and a google map to my question and the following: Through the address of this advertiser I can put some link that when any user click open directly in Waze for example? or any other GPS application?

I do not know if this is some code ready or is API possible?

Yes you can. If you have the address, you can get the latitude and longitude coordinates. With this, you can use a Waze feature called Deep Links .

It is a url-based API that you can use to directly open the Waze App if it is installed, or directly open the site.

The url must have this format:

https://www.waze.com/location?ll=latitude,logitude

Example:

link

You can search and use native calls from Android or iOS , see more here: link
