Open spotify link in app, if app is installed, otherwise in Web Browser

Open spotify link in app, if app is installed, otherwise in Web Browser

Hi there,

I've researched this topic before, but all answers seem to be 2 years old, so I will give this a try:

I'm currently creating a website and I want to include a Spotify link. I want for people, who have spotify installed, to have the link opened in the app. I do this with the URI link. Disadvantage: If s.o., who does not have Spotify, clicks on it, nothing happens.
So I need to take the open.spotify.com/track.... Link. But if I use that, then it also opens in the Web App for people, who DO have the app installed.
Both solutions are annoying.

So I would need a link that opens in the app, if the app is installed, and else in the browser. Alternatively I would need a way how to check, if the desktop app is installed and then choose which link is displayed.
Is there any way to do this?
