It is possible to allow navigation between Apps by configuring the Action of a Block on the launching App to navigate to the destination App's URL and set it's landing page's Parameter. This allows you to separate your content into different applications that can still be easily navigated by the user.
Important Considerations:
The parameter name in both Apps must match exactly
The destination App must be published and accessible to users of the launching App.
Add a Parameter and a textbox to display the value when it is passed to the Page during runtime.
