Convex Auth - Redirect to app?
I'm building a hybrid app, and I'm currently using Convex Auth, which works really well on the web.
I'm using Capacitor to basically package my app into a webview. I'm wondering how I would make the Google oAuth redirect to my app, instead of the web.
Thanks!

I would start with the React Native instructions for creating a SignIn button for oauth - it won't work exactly for Capacitor, but should give a good framework for what the approach might look like. Hit this link and hit the React Native tab above the code sample: https://labs.convex.dev/auth/config/oauth#add-sign-in-button
If you haven't already, you'll need to look into universal links / deep linking on the client side as well for forming a working link to your app: https://capacitorjs.com/docs/guides/deep-links#website-configuration
