# Other Methods

Backpack supports additional methods accessible via deeplinks in addition to its [Provider Methods](https://docs.backpack.app/deeplinks/provider-methods).

Users can use the [Browse](https://docs.backpack.app/deeplinks/other-methods/browse) deeplink to open web apps within Backpack's in-app browser.

***

Deeplinks make it easy for users to open web apps within Backpack. Users can scan a QR code with their phone's camera to open a page directly within Backpack's in-app browser. If a web app detects that a user is using a mobile device, it can prompt the user to open a specific page in Bacpack's in-app browser.

The `browse` deeplink can be used before a Connect event takes place, as it does not require a `session` param. 

`browse` deeplinks are not intended to be pasted into mobile web browsers.

These deeplinks must either be handled by an app or clicked on by an end user.
