How do I create a button that will send the user to a Facebook page when pressed? Should I send the user to the Facebook app or a browser (and the browser will send them to the Facebook app?)

The launch url command will open any valid web link in the user's default browser.

for the app use

Code: Select all

launch URL "fb://facebookRequest"
Where facebookrequest can be any valid facebook request.
If the app is installed it, Android would ask if open the URL with Facebook app, because fb: is the standard custom URL of facebook.
