Have you tried using Xamarin Essentials : Xamarin.Essentials: Launcher

   public class LauncherTest
{
    public async Task OpenRideShareAsync()
    {
        var supportsUri = await Launcher.CanOpenAsync("lyft://");
        if (supportsUri)
            await Launcher.OpenAsync("lyft://ridetype?id=lyft_line");
    }
}

Or

Device.OpenUri(new Uri("fb://page/page_id"));

Device.OpenUri(new Uri("twitter://user?user_id=userid"))

don't forget to use the correct package name when opening specific apps
