NativeScript URL Handler Plugin trouble to make it working - nativescript

Question

I am trying to use this plugin with Nativescript Angular.
I followed the tutorial Nativescript Url Handler
In my app.component.ts :
ngOnInit() {
handleOpenURL((appURL: AppURL) => {
console.log('Got the following appURL', appURL);
alert(appURL);
});
}
In android manifest :
<activity
android:name=".activities.Activity"
android:label="#string/app_name">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/>
<data android:scheme="http"
android:host="example.com"
android:pathPrefix="/"/>
</intent-filter>
And when I input to my Google Chrome navigator : http://example.com/ or http://www.example.com/ ,
it does not work. Any help, i would appreciate.

I don't think hitting URL on Chrome's address bar will open your app. It should be a link, when you click the link it would try to open your app.
For example, even YouTube - if you hit youtube.com it will still open it in Chrome browser. If you click a Youtube video link may be from a Google search, then it would try to launch the app.
Also do not forget to try a clean build.
