Hi kevin, The code is correct and also you dont need to add " new app indexing " as well, It does open the track page inside your app but for that you need to open your phone settings -go to app section or app info- select open by default -open supported links in the app-always ask . Also, you can directly open inside your app by selecting-open in app :)
