To deep link into the iOS Music app, you can use universal links or custom URLs that are recognized by your app's code. Here are some relevant details from the WWDC sessions:

  1. Universal Links: Universal links help people access your content, whether or not they have your app installed. You can represent your app entities, enums, and intents as having a URL representation, which allows Siri and shortcuts to treat them like links to specific content. This can be useful for deep linking to specific content within your app. For more details, you can refer to the session What’s new in App Intents (11:41).

  2. Custom Product Pages: In App Store Connect, you can create custom product pages with deep links. These deep links can be any custom URL or a universal link that is recognized by your app's code. This allows you to customize where someone lands when they open your app from a custom product page. For more information, you can check the session What’s new in App Store Connect (11:50).

  3. CarPlay Integration: If you are integrating with CarPlay, you can configure settings to be deep links that take the driver straight into your app. This allows the driver to access the functionality of your iOS app from custom entry points defined in the CarPlay UI. For more details, see the session Meet the next generation of CarPlay architecture (21:19).
