Why Play Store links need this
A Play Store link carries a long package parameter, which is ugly on a poster or in an ad. A short link is clean, comes with a QR code for print, and lets you track how many people tapped install.

More about Play Store links
A tidy install link for bios, groups and ads
A Play Store address ends in a raw package name like id=com.yourapp plus region codes, which looks technical in a bio or a WhatsApp group where a lot of Android users find apps. A directinapp short link hides that behind a clean address and, tapped on an Android phone, opens your listing in the Play Store app so the Install button is one press away, with a web fallback.
Share the link where Android users already are
A lot of Android installs begin with a link dropped into a WhatsApp broadcast, a Telegram channel or a Facebook group. A long Play Store URL with its package name looks like spam there and gets scrolled past. A short directinapp link reads as trustworthy and, on an Android phone, opens your listing right in the Play Store app, so an interested person is one tap from Install.

What if an iPhone user taps my Play Store link?+
A Play Store link goes to the Google Play listing, which is for Android, so an iPhone user cannot install from it. If your app is also on iOS, share your App Store link with those users and keep the two short links separate.
Does it work with Play Store country and language codes?+
Yes. Play Store links often carry hl and gl codes for language and country. The short link forwards to the exact URL you paste, so people reach the listing in the language and storefront you chose, opening in the Play Store app on Android.
