Attempting to use: https://dev.twitter.com/docs/intents#follow-intent
Docs recommend using https://twitter.com/intent/user with user_id=[id] parameter instead of ?screen_name=[name] whenever possible. On desktop, this resolves perfectly, but on mobile, it resolves to mobile.twitter.com/user?user_id=[id] instead of the profile.
Example: Works on desktop, breaks on mobile: https://twitter.com/intent/user?user_id=19247844 Works on both: https://twitter.com/intent/user?screen_name=glamourmag
As a test, I used https://twitter.com/intent/user?screen_name=glamourmag&user_id=19247844 which seems to work on both, but could have other problems.
Anyone else having this issue?
Thanks!
Hi Sean,
Thanks for the report and apologies for the error. We pushed a fix for this yesterday afternoon and user_id links should now work as expected on mobile.
