I don't understand why you can't type the address of the page you want to go to, or click a link to get there (or provide a link if you're the website owner)?

It looks like you're forcing people to go to a page other than the one you select, but that would be really crap, so it can't be that ... so what are you doing?

Makes no sense to me, but then I hate websites that want me to install a wrapper around a web renderer just so I can access content that's really only a website ... is that what's going on?

Really, no idea and the demo didn't make it clear why the behaviour was good?

The thing I made is an opt-in redirect. If you don't want to be redirected from marketing -> app, then you wouldn't click the "Always go to app" button. No content wrapping, no installations, no change in behavior for anyone who doesn't opt in to the redirect. I made it because I often think "I'd like to see how my CI is doing", and then I type "circleci.com", and land on their marketing page instead of the app dashboard at "app.circleci.com".

Yeah, very good point.. I can no longer view https://elliotplant.com/marketing-redirect/ because I'm instantly forced away every time.

Did you try clicking the "Disable marketing redirect" button? That removes the redirect.
