I wanted to send a link for Quick Assist to my grandpa through email, so I don't need to tell him to go through the procedure (Start, then type Quick Assist and click the Quick Assist app) instead I would just send him the link through email and he would open the app (Quick Assist) automatically just by clicking that link?
According to this article an app need to enable App Links to accept these kinds of deep links. It doesn't look like Quick Assist has that kind of functionality--only a few of the most popular apps would.

I'm working on the app that has an email confirmation for new users. The task I need to complete is that if user clicks on the activation link from the mail application it should show a prompt to continue activation the the app if one is installed. It's a similar behavior to the universal links but I need the redirection only for that specific case. All the other links should be opened normally in the browser. Does anyone has an idea how can I achieve this?
P.S. attached picture represent an expected behavior.
What you are looking for is Universal Links. Some reading material:

I am integrating Intercom into my website, but when a user loads the page, the chat window automatically opens up. I have gone through their documentation, adding things like Intercom('hide'), turning off and removing auto messaging, etc, but the messenger still opens up. I have reached out to their customer support (on their own chat app) and no one has responded back or reached out. Kind of bad UX to have it open without anyone clicking the chat button. Anyone know how to disable this feature?
The answer is in one of their guides Customize the Intercom Messenger (technical) rather than the technical documentation:
First, you’ll need to hide the Messenger for all of your customers. Just visit your Messenger settings and deselect the options for turning the Messenger on.
Next, you’ll need to think about which users you’d like to show the Messenger to (for example, your VIP customers).
Finally, add the hide_default_launcher attribute to your intercomSettings object on your site. The value of thehide_default_launcher attribute should be true or false, depending on if you want to hide or show the launcher.
So hide_default_launcher is the key.
You can go to App Settings > Messenger Settings section and blank Welcome Message:

I am trying to send a link to the review section on the FB app so someone can leave a review for the business page.
This link opens the businesses app page but would like to structure it so it automatically opens the leave review section.
Any suggestions to ad something to the end of this URL to make this happen?

This is not supported. People have found ways to work around this, but it's not guaranteed to work and not officially supported.
I'm looking to have a share to Facebook button in my app but, I'm looking to have a way that when the screen comes up to share that it'll include the current article and the picture that is in the article too. I'm trying to do this is swift. If someone could please give me a hand with this that would be great!
I experienced that. The following passage was quoted from developers.facebook.com.
After discussing this with our team regarding stripping the
pre-filling message area of text, this is actually BY DESIGN with the
new share extension.
Pre-filling texts violates Platform Policy 2.3
(https://developers.facebook.com/policy/) to pre-fill the message area
with text for people to edit, which is why we strip the text. We know
this is a pain point for developers but this is about ensuring that
users are sharing exactly what they want to share on Facebook, and not
being able to accidentally share text they did not approve of. So in
all enforcing policy 2.3 is a feature and not a bug.
Other services may allow you to accomplish this pre-fill but we have
updated the share sheet implementation to adhere to the same rules as
you would have when sharing directly using the iOS Facebook
Application instead of the native share sheet.

I am going to develop an extention to share a selected part of page just by clicking on a share image that shown in page..How can I share a text or image in google plus without opening share dialog?
Is there any way?
The only way to share on Google+ is through the share dialog.
Google has stated that they want shares to be deliberate actions - they don't want to allow web pages or other systems to be able to post anything "on your behalf" without the user taking a specific affirmative action.
In short, they don't want Facebook's "frictionless sharing".
They are beginning to roll out the ability for websites to automatically post "moments" into a history vault, but users will still need to take a specific action for these moments to be posted to their stream. See https://developers.google.com/+/history/ for more information and the developer preview.
