Set it up
- Get Patois from TestFlight, open it once and pick your music app.
- In Settings › Apps › Safari › Extensions, turn on Patois and allow the websites it asks for.
Way one: in Safari
Tap a Spotify or Apple link that opens in Safari and Patois sends it to your app by itself. To stop this, open the Patois extension in Safari and turn off Open links automatically.
Way two: the share sheet
In Messages, WhatsApp or anywhere else, long-press the link and choose Share › Patois. This is also the only way to open Deezer links.
If a Spotify link keeps opening the Spotify app
iOS sends links straight to the app that owns them. Long-press the link and choose Open in Safari once, and Safari handles them from then on, which lets Patois do its job. To undo this, long-press a Spotify link and tap the Open in Spotify banner at the top of the page.
