I am updating my Translator app.

I would like to call my app from other applications. For example, if a user is browsing the web and sees a word they don't know, the could highlight the word and select my Translator app from the Safari context menu.

I thought I could do this the App Clip API but it doesn't appear to be the case.

Is there a way to do this in iOS?

Given the inherent limitations in relation to opening one app from another, I'm not sure via a context menu is workable.
