Open Other applications on button press

I am implementing react-native-app-link in my project but I am facing issue in the implementation I have a list of applications on the press of a specific button it should either open the app or redirect to play store or app store.

I do not have any deep-link URL for this app is there any way to achieve this?

Example for my app: IOS and Android

Package name: com.medlife.customerApp
name: MedlifePlay

iOS: package name: medlife-all-things-healthapp
id: 1078091111
App store name :Medlife

If possible please provide demo example for this library

@sagarhudge Did you come across a way to use it or a demo?

I used it in a manner like this

AppLink.maybeOpenURL('whatsapp://send?phone=254793335284', {
  appName: 'whatsapp-messenger',
  appStoreId: 310633997,
  appStoreLocale: '',
  playStoreId: 'com.whatsapp',
})

Ids and names can be found on the urls of the apps page on both app store and play store.

const onPresss = () => {
OpenApplication.openApplication('com.dev47apps.droidcam')
.then(() => {})
.catch(err => {
AppLink.maybeOpenURL('droidcam://', {
appName: 'DroidCam',
appStoreId: '',
appStoreLocale: '',
playStoreId: 'com.dev47apps.droidcam',
})
.then(() => {})
.catch(err => {});
});
};

import OpenApplication from 'react-native-open-application';
