It’s relatively simple: App A registers for a URL scheme, let’s say AppA://. App B asks the system if it knows how to handle AppA:// links.

I'm guessing "yes" because I've seen several apps that can do this; most of them by PocketGems (example: Tap Paradise Cove can tell if you installed Tap Campus Life, and give you a reward for completing a quest in Paradise Cove if you complete some other quest in Campus Life. Or is this just all server-side? Is this part of APN (push notifications)?
