A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:

• from a mobile device, transmitting a uniform resource locator (URL) associated with a requested resource;
• receiving a response to the transmission of the URL, wherein the response comprises data usable by the mobile device to identify a resource type indicative of the requested resource;
• based on the identified resource type, presenting the requested resource using:
• a user interface component of an app running on the mobile device if the identified resource type is capable of being presented by the user interface component without reliance on web browser functionality provided on the mobile device;
• or
• a web browser component used by the app running on the mobile device if the identified resource type is not capable of being presented using user interface components of the app.
