[ARCHIVED] Using URI to open Canvas Student app

I'm building an app which will allow users to open Canvas Student and deep link to a course, convervsation, etc. 

Using 'canvas-courses://com.example.instructure/conversations' as a link works fine on iOS to open Canvas and link to the inbox screen. However on Android it only opens the app to the dashboard.

Has anyone else had this issue?

Figured it out, just had to use my org's actual canvas url instead of example.instructure.com and it works on both iOS and Android now.
