QR Code Type
App Store QR Code
Send users to the right app store automatically.
What it is
A URL QR that detects the scanning device and sends iPhone users to the App Store and Android users to Google Play. Saves you from printing two QR codes.
Common uses
- In-store posters for mobile apps
- Onboarding cards and welcome kits
- TV ads and out-of-home campaigns
- Restaurant table tents for ordering apps
- Event check-in posters
What to put
- A smart-link URL that auto-detects device (e.g. branch.io, firebase.app)
- Or a landing page with both store badges
Best practices
- Always have a fallback web page in case the app isn’t installed
- Test the redirect on a real iPhone AND a real Android
- Include the app icon near the QR so users know what they’re downloading
- Don’t link to a single store URL — half your users will hit a dead end
Pro tip
Tools like Branch, Adjust, or Firebase Dynamic Links auto-detect the device and even deep-link into a specific app screen after install — much smarter than a plain store URL.
