Set up a smart app link

One link that opens your app if it's installed, or sends people to the right app store, or to your website.

4 min · 6 steps

  1. 1

    Start a new link

    In your Dashboard, paste your website address as the destination. This is where desktop visitors and anyone without a supported store go.

  2. 2

    Open the smart app link section

    Click Smart app link — open my app if installed, otherwise send people to the right app store.

  3. 3

    Add your app link

    Enter the address that opens a screen in your app, such as myapp://product/42 or a universal link like https://app.example.com/42.

  4. 4

    Add your store links

    Add your Apple App Store link, Google Play package name or link, and optionally your Huawei AppGallery and Samsung Galaxy Store links. A separate Huawei app link is optional.

  5. 5

    Fix any warnings

    AXO checks every address. Red errors (such as a store link that isn't https) must be fixed before you can save; yellow warnings are advice.

  6. 6

    Click Shorten

    The link shows an app link tag in Your links. Open Analytics to see clicks by platform, store and app-open attempts.

Good to know

  • Smart app links per account: Free 1, Pro 3, Business 100, Enterprise unlimited.
