Waiting time before dialog "Download LinkedIn App" appears is too long.

Test app with the below packages has been installed on physical devices without Linkedin app installed.

"react": "16.0.0-alpha.12",
"react-native": "0.45.0",
"react-native-linkedin-login": "^1.44.1"

LinkedinLogin is initiated at componentDidMount and the LinkedinLogin.login is invoked on a button click

componentDidMount() {
    LinkedinLogin.init(['r_emailaddress', 'r_basicprofile'])
}

_btnClick() {
    LinkedinLogin.login()
        .then((user) => {
            console.log('User logged in: ', user)
        if(err) {
                console.log('ERROR login to Linkedin', err)
        })
}

The waiting time before the Install Linkedin app dialog appears is very arbitrary. It could be 6 seconds for the first time and up to 5 minutes for the consecutive times. That is a bad user experience.

I'm wondering whether the package could look up the url schema on the actual device to determine whether LinkedIn is installed or not to speed up the process.

Can we have a feature as, When there is no app installed we can still login through an web and get what ever field required?

Has anyone found a solution to this?

Sorry for the super long delay, I'm looking into adding a web fallback
