There are a few different approaches you can take to redirect to another app after a user has logged in. Here are some common methods:

  1. Deep linking: You can use deep linking to redirect users from one app to another. This involves creating a custom URL scheme for the destination app and including a link to that URL in the login flow of the first app. When the user clicks on the link after logging in, they will be redirected to the second app.
  2. App-to-app communication: Some platforms and frameworks, such as iOS and Android, allow for inter-app communication. You can use this feature to pass information from one app to another, such as a token or user ID, after the user has logged in.
  3. Custom OAuth flow: If both apps use OAuth for authentication, you can create a custom OAuth flow that allows the user to seamlessly switch from one app to another after logging in. This involves handling the OAuth redirect URI in a way that triggers the redirect to the second app.
  4. Use a third-party service: There are third-party services and tools available that can help facilitate app-to-app redirects after login. These services often provide SDKs or APIs that can be integrated into your apps to simplify the process of redirecting users.


Ultimately, the approach you choose will depend on the specific requirements of your apps and the platforms you are targeting. It's important to consider factors such as user experience, security, and compatibility when implementing app-to-app redirects after login.
