General Concepts

What are Dynamic Links?

Dynamic links are smart URLs that:

• Work on both web and mobile
• Open your app if installed, or redirect to web/store if not
• Track clicks and installs with full attribution
• Support deferred deep linking (users reach intended content after install)

How It Works

1. Create a Link - Generate a dynamic link with a target URL
2. Share the Link - Users click the link from anywhere (email, SMS, social media)
3. Smart Routing - Redirectly detects if app is installed and routes accordingly
4. Track Everything - All clicks, installs, and conversions are tracked

Basic Flow

User clicks link → Redirectly checks app install status → 
  ├─ App installed → Open app with deep link
  └─ App not installed → Redirect to store → After install → Open app with deferred deep link
