A SwiftUI component to make handling of email links better. Not only will EmailLink use the correct default client, it will also prompt the user to select which to use if they have multiple installed.
Tested on iOS 16.0 but should work on iOS and iPadOS 13.0 and up.
- Add the package to your Swift Package Dependencies
- Whitelist the URL schemes in your
Info.plist. Refer to the Schemes section for more information.<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key> <array> <string>googlegmail://</string> <string>ms-outlook://</string> <string>readdle-spark://</string> <string>ymail://</string> <string>airmail://</string> </array>
- Add the component where you want to use it
EmailLink("contact@example.com") { Text("Contact Us") }
Below are the parameters available on EmailLink.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| to | String | Yes | Where to send the email |
| subject | String | No | Subject to populate |
| body | String | No | Email body to populate |
| color | UIColor | No | Color for ActionSheet buttons |
| label | View | Yes | View to show as the EmailLink |
In order for EmailLink to work, you must include LSApplicationQueriesSchemes along with the associated values in your Info.plist. The most common iOS email clients are supported. If an email client is not listed here, it will default to the built-in iOS mailto: scheme which will use the system default app.
