Method of selecting a user profile of an application for opening a url

A computer-implemented method of selecting a user profile of an application implemented on a user device for opening a URL, comprising:

• implementing a control application by at least one processor in association with at least one memory on a user device;
• receiving, by the control application, user profile data relating to user profiles of an application implemented on the user device;
• receiving, by the control application, a URL for a resource from a further application implemented on the user device in response to user input to a user interface of the further application by a user of the user device;
• capturing, by the control application, a screenshot image of at least the user interface of the further application upon receipt of the URL;
• extracting, by the control application, features from the screenshot image associated with the URL;
• building, by the control application, a machine learning based model to predict user profiles of the application corresponding to the URL using the features as training data for the model and the user profile data;
• selecting, by the control application, one of the user profiles of the application implemented on the user device for opening the URL based on the model;
• outputting, by the control application, the selected user profile to the application;
• and
• opening, by the application, the URL using the selected user profile of the application.
