how to open link with app instead of browser

Question

I am trying read barcod and then get URL from this barcod and then trying to open this URL. it show this page which is open with app or continue with browser . even if select open with app . it will ask me this page next time. how can directly open this url with Autocad a360 app.

this is my code:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(StringURL));
startActivity(intent);

If I understand correctly, you don't want to open this URL in your own app, but in another app that is installed on that device. This is not anything you can do from you app, as it happens on OS level. Depending on your Android version, it should be possible to define default apps. But of course the other app must have support for opening that URL (which is the case, as otherwise it would not be listed in the open with dialog) — derpirscher

Add this code to manifest.

<activity
 android:theme="@style/AppTheme.Launcher"
 android:name=".features.MainActivity">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
    </intent-filter>
    <intent-filter android:label="@string/app_name">
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
        <data android:host="YOURSITE.com"
              android:scheme="http" />
    </intent-filter>
</activity>
