Hi,

It seems that the Link Object in SwiftUI is dedicated to link to a webpage like this:

Code Block languageLink(destination: policyURL!) {
	Text("Link")
}

Unfortunately it is not functional on watchOS. If I provide a weburl to it, it says the operation is not supported.

Best regards,
Arno

On watchOS, Link can open Universal Links that launch apps on your watch. It also works with other URL schemes like tel: for starting a phone call.

If you'd like to see Link open web pages in a browser on watchOS, please send us your feedback through Feedback Assistant. Thank you!
