How to Open iTunes Links inside Chrome for iOS

Google Chrome is a good
alternative to the default Safari
web browser on iOS devices but
there’s one little problem –
Chrome doesn’t know how to
properly handle iTunes URLs.
For instance, if you happen to
click a link that points to an
iPhone app, Chrome will show
the HTML source of the
itunes.apple.com page instead of
opening the iTunes Apps Store
(app).
There are two ways to fix this
problem.
You can copy the
itunes.apple.com URL from
Chrome’s address bar, switch to
Safari and paste the URL in a
new tab. Safari will
automatically launch the app’s
page inside the Apps Store.
There’s an easier option as
well. While in Chrome, tap the
Hamburger menu button in the
upper right and choose the
“Request Desktop Site” option.
Chrome will now render the
regular itunes page – similar to
the ones you see on desktop
computers – and you can tap
the “View in iTunes” button to
open that app inside the Apps
Store.
You may use a similar
workaround for opening movies
and music album listings inside
the iTunes app from the Google
Chrome browser.
