One QR that figures out the scanner's device. iPhone goes to the App Store, Android goes to Google Play, anyone on desktop or another OS lands on a fallback URL (your marketing page, usually). No need for two separate QRs side-by-side.
Device routing happens server-side at scan time — based on the scanner's User-Agent. You don't need to host any landing page yourself.
Setting it up
1
Open the link editor at
/app/links/new and pick App download.2
Paste your App Store URL (the
apps.apple.com/app/idXXXXXXXXXX link) — iPhone / iPad scanners go here.3
Paste your Google Play URL (
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=…) — Android scanners go here.4
(Optional) Fallback URL — anyone on desktop or a non-iOS/Android device lands here. Default is your marketing site if left blank.
5
Save. Print the QR or share the short link.
Where it earns its print run
- Out-of-home ads + posters — one QR works everywhere.
- Onboarding emails / receipts — scan from phone, land on the right store.
- Conference handouts + flyers — no more "iOS on the left, Android on the right" layouts.
- TV ads + lower-third overlays — point a phone at the screen.
Editing the destination later
Edit at any time from the link editor. Swap App Store / Play Store URLs as new versions ship — the underlying short link stays the same and the QR keeps working.
