On iOS the Dropbox app uses it for authentication for third party apps. I'm sure there's lots of ways you could use it like launching an app from a link in a browser.

The uri in urlWakeUp on android pronbably is the uri for the file being shared but I think in most cases you would need to use a content resolver to get the actual data of the file unless the app sharing the file put it in a public directory.
