App Store Link Shortener

Short install links for your iOS app, with a QR for print. Free to start.

Free plan. No card needed.

Why App Store links need this

An App Store URL is long and full of parameters, which looks messy in an ad or on a poster. A short link is clean, comes with a QR code, and tracks how many people tapped through to install.

More about App Store links

One bio link that lands iPhone users on your App Store page

When you promote an iOS app in an Instagram or TikTok bio, a raw apps.apple.com link is long and looks untrustworthy above your name. A directinapp short link is clean and, tapped on an iPhone, opens your listing in the App Store app where the Get button and install are one press away, with a web fallback for anyone on the browser.

Skip the Safari listing, open the real App Store

Tapped from inside some apps, an App Store web address loads a stripped down Safari page instead of the store, adding a step before anyone can install. A directinapp short link opens your app directly in the App Store app on an iPhone, so the screenshots, ratings and Get button are right there. If the store cannot open, it falls back to the web listing.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does it open the App Store app?+

On an iPhone, the link opens the app’s page in the App Store so people can install in one tap.

Does it come with a QR code?+

Yes. Every short link has a QR code, ideal for posters and packaging.

Can I track how many tapped install?+

Yes. Every short link has real-time click analytics.

Will it keep my listing parameters?+

Yes. The short link redirects to the exact App Store URL you paste.

Is it free?+

Yes. Shortening App Store links is free. Premium plans add longer analytics history and custom slugs.

What happens if an Android user taps my App Store link?+

An App Store link points to Apple's iOS listing, so an Android user cannot install from it. If you have both versions, share your Play Store link with Android users and keep the two short links separate so each audience reaches the right store.

Does it work with any App Store country link?+

Yes. An Apple listing includes a country storefront in the address, like /in/ or /us/. The short link forwards to the exact App Store URL you paste, so people land in the storefront you chose, opening in the App Store app on iPhone.
