One Link for the App Store AND Play Store (It Detects the Device)

- 0:00One link, two app stores
- You're promoting an app. iPhone people need the App Store, Android people need the Play Store and a link can only point one way. Except it doesn't have to. In the next two minutes: one short link that reads the device and routes every visitor to the right place, the same trick for a QR code on a poster, and an iPhone to prove it. All free, with Linkly.
- 0:19How device routing works
- Here's the shape of it. One link. When someone clicks, Linkly reads the device before forwarding: iPhones and iPads go to your App Store page, Androids go to the Play Store, and anyone on a computer lands on your website. Nobody sees a wrong page and every click is still counted.
- 0:37Build it in Linkly
- Let's build one. Paste the normal destination that's the fallback for desktops. Then open Redirect by device: there's a row for iOS, Android, Windows, Linux, even Mac. I'm using two labelled demo pages so you can see the routing in real life you'd paste your store links. Pick the domain, name the ending, save. Proof.
- 0:58An iPhone tests the link
- Watch an iPhone open the same link. It sails straight through and lands on the iPhone page, automatically. An Android phone gets the Android page. Desktops get the site. One link, and everyone ends up in the

- right place. And because it's a Linkly link, it's also a QR code. Print that one square on the poster, and every phone that scans it still gets routed by device. That's the two-app-stores QR problem, solved.

- So: one link, one QR, every device routed to the right place and every click tracked. Set yours up free with Linkly. Everything you need is just below this video.
