Link Mode

WalletKit Link Mode is a low latency mechanism for transporting One-Click Auth requests and session requests over Universal Links, reducing the need for a WebSocket connection with the Relay. This significantly enhances the user experience when connecting native dApps to native wallets by reducing the latency associated with network connections, especially when the user has an unstable internet connection.

How to enable it:

To support Link Mode add a universal link for your wallet in Cloud project configuration dashboard, configure your Metadata with a valid universal link and set the linkMode property to true:

const walletKit = await WalletKit.init({
  core,
  metadata: {
    name: 'Demo React Native Wallet',
    description: 'Demo RN Wallet to interface with Dapps',
    url: 'www.reown.com/walletkit',
    icons: ['https://your_wallet_icon.png'],
    redirect: {
      native: 'yourwalletscheme://',
      universal: 'https://example.com/example_wallet',
      linkMode: true,
    }
  }
})

Platform specifics:

iOS

To enable universal links for your app, refer to React Native Documentation.

After following the steps provided in the official guide:

1. Ensure that you handle incoming Universal Links in the your AppDelegate.mm file.

#import <React/RCTLinkingManager.h>

// Enable deeplinks
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application
   openURL:(NSURL *)url
   options:(NSDictionary<UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsKey,id> *)options
{
  return [RCTLinkingManager application:application openURL:url options:options];
}

// Enable Universal Links
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application continueUserActivity:(nonnull NSUserActivity *)userActivity
 restorationHandler:(nonnull void (^)(NSArray<id<UIUserActivityRestoring>> * _Nullable))restorationHandler
{
 return [RCTLinkingManager application:application
                  continueUserActivity:userActivity
                    restorationHandler:restorationHandler];
}

2. Open your project in XCode and go to Settings/Signing & Capabilities/Associated Domains to add the new domain. After this, your_project.entitlement should look like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
  <key>com.apple.developer.associated-domains</key>
  <array>
    <string>applinks:example.com</string>
  </array>
</dict>
</plist>

3. Update/Create your domain's .well-known/apple-app-site-association file accordingly.

For more information about supporting universal links, visit the Supporting associated domains page

For a debugging guide, visit the Debugging Universal Links page.

Android

Android Studio provides a tool to configure Universal Links easily, you can read the guide in Android Documentation

After following the steps provided in the guide:

1. Ensure that your Universal Link is properly configured in your app's AndroidManifest.xml file with the autoVerify set to true. It should look similar to this:

<intent-filter android:autoVerify="true">
  <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

  <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
  <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

  <data android:scheme="https" />
  <data android:host="example.com" />
  <data android:pathPattern="/example_wallet" />
</intent-filter>

2. Update/Create your domains's .well-known/assetlinks.json file accordingly

For more information on how to configure universal links for your app, refer to Android Documentation.
For testing the configured universal link to app content check this documentation page.

Once everything is properly configured, and the user interacts with a Link Mode-supporting dApp, your wallet will receive requests through it.
