It's a search, not a direct link
TIDAL's lookup needs its approval, which Patois doesn't have, so it can't ask for the exact song. It opens TIDAL's own search with the details already filled in.
Podcasts don't open in TIDAL yet, so a podcast link stays where it is.
On iPhone and iPad
- Get Patois from TestFlight, open it once and pick TIDAL.
- In Settings › Apps › Safari › Extensions, turn on Patois and allow the websites it asks for.
- Tap a Spotify or Apple Music link. Safari passes it to Patois, and it opens in TIDAL.
If a link opens in another app, or you'd rather not use Safari, long-press it and choose Share › Patois.
On a computer
- Chrome: add Patois from the Chrome Web Store and pin it to the toolbar. Click its icon, pick TIDAL, then click Spotify or Apple Music links as usual.
- Mac: get Patois from TestFlight and open it once. In Safari › Settings › Extensions, turn on Patois and allow the websites it asks for.
