.htacess - Redirect only if its android

Question

I need to auto open page in chrome. This code opens in mobile chrome without any problems.

RedirectMatch 301 id/(.*)$ intent://remoteurl.com/cancel.php?id=$1#Intent;scheme=https;package=com.android.chrome;end

But need this work only if user is on Android. So I have tried this but it doesnt redirect.

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} (android) [NC] RedirectMatch 301 ^id/(.*)$ intent://remoteurl.com/cancel.php?id=$1#Intent;scheme=https;package=com.android.chrome;end

The problem is, this url scheme won't work if RewriteRule is used,

RewriteRule ^i/(.*)$ intent://remoteurl.com/cancel.php?id=$1#Intent;scheme=https;package=com.android.chrome;end [R=301,L]

but works with redirectMatch 301. However, redirectMatch 301 doesn't work if RewriteCond is used. So what is the correct way to do that ?

(Similar questions have already been asked, however this is for different url scheme intent://)

You can use the one of the following code for redirecting the user if he is visiting from mobile ....

Using PHP:

<?php function isMobile() { return preg_match("/(android|avantgo|blackberry|bolt|boost|cricket|docomo|fone|hiptop|mini|mobi|palm|phone|pie|tablet|up\.browser|up\.link|webos|wos)/i", $_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"]); } // If the user is on a mobile device, redirect them if(isMobile()) { // Redirect to Some where .... header("Location: http://m.yoursite.com/"); } ?>

Using .htaccess:

Code 1

RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} (iphone|ipad|android|blackberry|windows\ phone) [NC] RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^\.m.yoursite.com\.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^ http://yoursite.com

Code 2

RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !(iphone|ipad|android|blackberry|windows\ phone) [NC] RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^m\.yoursite\.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^ http://www.yoursite.com

Thanks. But I know these already, have you tried "intent://" url in RewriteRule ? It doesn't work somehow.
Update: php header redirect is working with "intent://" so it solved my problem, thanks!
