Android application that open certain links from external applications
<p>I really can't find anything for this, maybe I'm using the wrong keywords. Hope you can help anyway.
I developed an application which has the task to navigate a website in a easy way from mobile, but now I want it to be recognised outside from other applications as default for certain links. For example:
An email arrives from this website on your phone, when you click on the link in it, which rediricts to a page on that website, I want that the OS asks me to choose which application I want to use, in this case Google Chrome or my application. 
Only thing I was able to do was to make it open YouTube links with the YouTube application externally, not viceversa from outside</p>

<p>Thanks fot the help and the idea, this is how i made it work: 
Manifest.xml</p>

<pre><code>&lt;intent-filter&gt;
     &lt;action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /&gt;
     &lt;category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /&gt;
     &lt;action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" /&gt;
     &lt;category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /&gt;
     &lt;category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" /&gt;
     &lt;data
         android:host="www.mywebsite"
         android:scheme="https"
     /&gt;
</code></pre>

<p><code>Mainactivity.java</code> (inside <code>OnCreate</code>)</p>

<pre><code>WebView myWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);
Intent intent = getIntent();
Uri data = intent.getData();
if (data!=null) {
    myWebView.loadUrl(String.valueOf(data)); //Load given link from external app
} else {
    myWebView.loadUrl("http://www.mywebsite"); //Load homescreen 
}
</code></pre>
