So I have been trying to find wayx to associate My App to my website's google search, a couple of post are suggesting using App Indexing from the Google Play Store I tried that and nothing has happen so far...( Unless I have to create a deeplink in the App Mainfest?) And example of what I am trying to achieve is similar to the screenshot provided for such as Walgreens where they have a install button. And I want to achieve the same with my personal project. Are there any resources out there to achieve this feature?
There are apps that open a windows that show another app page on Google play, and you can download it from there.
Like this:
Can anyone please help me?
Thanks in advance
Create a web link in your app like below:
"http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=<package_name>"
This should open your app in Google Play. Or if the user have no Google Play on his device it will open the link with the default browser.
I know it might sound weird! Is it possible to link the number of downloads of your app from your site to reflect on Google play store?
I don't think you can access directly from the site, but you can use the WhereDat app search API
I have two apps in the google play store. Is it possible to create an http link from one to another in the description of the first?
Google Play descriptions do not support links.
That not true.
You can add links to other application in google play with <a> tag.
For example, link to my app:
ROS Sensors
You can look at my description app how i do it:
ROS Sensors
We can provide links in play store description using two methods.
Visit Link https://www.google.com
Output in play store app:
Visit Link https://www.google.com
Output in play store website:
Visit Link https://www.google.com
Note :
The below code will not make any link in play store app
Visit Link https://www.google.com
Google Play descriptions do not support links. You can tell the reader the name of the app, nothing more.
Plus, in any case, your app will come under the "Related Apps" and "More from developer" headings in most cases.
If you put full url address in app description (with https protocol, not only www) it will be visible as a link in browser.
eg:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=domain.company.appname
Of course google play links to apps aren't nice so you can use some url converters.
Google has documentated how to properly link within google play to other resources like a store listing, developer page, a search result etc..
Linking to a store listing
Use the format below to deep-link directly to an app's Store listing page, where users can see the app description, screenshots, reviews and more, and then install it.
To create the link, you need to know the app's fully qualified package name, which is declared in the app's manifest file. The package name is also visible in the Google Play Console.
http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=<package_name>
Here's an example:
http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.maps
A URL of the following form will be converted to a clickable link and will redirect to the address specified in YOUR_URL.
https://www.google.com/url?q=YOUR_URL
eg: https://www.google.com/url?q=https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=domain.company.appname
I know how to link users directly to product detail page in Google Play Application from an Android Apps using code below,
market://details?id=package_name
My question is, is there any way that link users directly to product detail page in Google Play Application from an WEB by force?
I tried with code below, however, few of devices ask me which app [web browser, Google play application] do I want to use to complete action of LINK but most of them usually links me directly to Google Play WEB Page.
http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pacakage_name
Any Solution?
Thank you
