Application QR Code: Send Scanners Straight to Your App Listing

An Application QR code points scanners to your app’s listing. You enter both an App Store link and a Google Play link when you create it.

That single code then covers iOS and Android at once.

This is a dynamic type, so the linked app or store URL can be updated anytime without needing a new code printed.

It saves a search step for anyone who would otherwise need to open a store app and type your app’s name manually.

How an Application QR Code Works

TLinky routes the scan through a short link built from the App Store and Google Play URLs you provide at setup, so both platforms are covered by a single code.

Because it is dynamic, every scan is logged in your dashboard, giving you scan volume alongside your other TLinky QR analytics.

When to Use an Application QR Code

Use it on packaging, posters, receipts, or in-store signage to drive app downloads without a typed search.

It works well paired with a QR code campaign at launch, since you can track scan volume against your download numbers from the same window.

FAQ

Does an Application QR code work for both iOS and Android?

Yes. You add both an App Store link and a Google Play link when creating the code, so one QR code covers both platforms instead of needing two separate codes.

Can I update the app link after the code is printed?

Yes. Application is a dynamic type, so editing the linked URLs in your dashboard updates every existing printed copy of the code immediately.

Does TLinky track scans on an Application QR code?

Yes. Every scan is logged in your dashboard, the same way it is tracked for Link and Email QR codes.
