URL Schemes Not Working For native Maps App In iOS 9

As mentioned by rmaddy

LSApplicationQueriesScheme is only needed to call canOpenURL:, not
openURL:

Even if you were using canOpenURL:, it would not be required to add LSApplicationQueriesScheme in the Info.plist for invoking the native maps app.

There seems to be a problem with the parameteres of the URL that you are forming to invoke Maps app. Try using one of the URLs mentioned in the documentation.

For example, you could use this.

Url schema for launching Google maps throwing Warning in iOS 9 and also not working

You have to add a LSApplicationQueriesSchemes entry to your Info.plist and list the schemes that you want your app to query.

<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>
<array>
     <string>urlscheme</string>
     <string>urlscheme2</string>
     <string>urlscheme3</string>
     <string>urlscheme4</string>
</array>

How do I open google maps app via my app in iOS 9?

Add LSApplicationQueriesSchemes as an array into your plist and then add any scheme url you need into as a string.

What if Google Maps Url Scheme is Already registered by Another App

There's nothing your app can do. If two apps register the same custom URL scheme, iOS will open one of them. A third app has no way to know that there is more than one app with the same registered URL scheme. A third app simply makes the request. It can't know which of the two is actually launched nor can it specify which of the two to launch.

None of this is specific to the Goole Maps custom URL scheme. Sadly, Apple makes no attempt to ensure that apps have a unique custom URL scheme.

Cant open google maps from my native ios app with url comgooglemaps-x-callback://

You can open google maps using comgooglemaps:// only.

if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"comgooglemaps://"]]) {

        NSString* url = [NSString stringWithFormat: @"comgooglemaps://?daddr=%@&directionsmode=driving", encodedString];

        [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString: url] options:@{} completionHandler:^(BOOL success) {
            if (success) {
                //do something on success
            }
        }];

    } else {
     //if google map is not installed in device then we can open goole map in web
        [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"https://maps.google.com/maps?daddr=%@", encodedString]] options:@{} completionHandler:^(BOOL success) {
            if (success) {
               //do something on success
            }
        }];
    }

Don't forget to include in Info.plist like below.

<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>
<array>

    <string>comgooglemaps</string>

</array>
