Requests to /.well-known/apple-app-site-association

Hi all
I keep getting Requests to /.well-known/apple-app-site-association and /.well-known/assetlinks.json?
I would think this is some iOS thingi asking for something that is not there. I have no idea on what it really asks for but is there a mod of sort that could handle these requests?

Thanks

What do you mean? Requests from where? Can you provide some context?

I think this is about all the different favicons. IOS uses a manifest.json for the touch icons.
You can generate favicons for all devices at several sites like favicomatic . com and add it to your head in common/header.tpl for your theme

It would like this for example

Since this issue is part of a custom theme, this topic will be moved to the Template Support section of the forum.

Hey Freakshow,
It's worth a try and improves your site anyway. It just popped in my mind after reading your post.

That does not despite the fact that your inquiry was posted in the wrong forum category section which has been moved to the right section afterwards.

Well ok then, your the boss

Seems the favicon thing didnt do its thing

404 URLs

Apart from not having the favicons in your site, which you still don't. This issue is something else indeed. I googled and found this:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3481 ... ssociation

I also found a distinctive solution regarding the resolution of this relative path from iOS:

it seems that the URL in question is supposed to be a JSON file linking paths on your website, back to your iOS app (when such an association exists, naturally)

So if i read that link somewhat correctly, it can be ignored if there is no app associated with my site?

My guess is that it's just google extending it's mapping to include information on associations between websites and specific iOS apps.
