            window.location = fallbackLocation;
             }, 5);
       window.location = "nativeappURL://" + appLocation;
    }

    function goToWeb(baseurl, webLocation) {
        window.location =baseurl + "/"+ webLocation;
    }
</script>

Then I just have two buttons that have an

 onclick="goToApp('appDestination', 'location')"

and

 onclick="goToWeb('webDestination', 'location')"
