Getting the designer ready…

Printing two codes, one for iPhone and one for Android, confuses people. An app download QR code works out which phone is scanning: iPhones go to the App Store, Android phones to Google Play.

Anyone else (a computer or another device) sees a simple page with both store buttons. You can change the store links later without reprinting.

How to create a App download QR code

  1. Paste your store links

    Your App Store and Google Play links (one is fine if you only have one).

  2. Add the app name

    Shown on the fallback page.

  3. Design the code

    Add your app icon as the logo.

  4. Save and print

    Use it on posters, packaging and in-store displays.

Ways to use it

  • Fintech and delivery apps. Get downloads from street posters and shop stickers.

  • Restaurants and loyalty. Point diners to your ordering app.

  • Events. Send attendees to the event app.

  • Packaging. Let customers download the companion app.

Tips for a code that scans every time

  • Use the official store links, copied from the store page.
  • Put your app icon in the centre of the code.
  • Test-scan with both an iPhone and an Android phone.

Frequently asked questions

How does it know which phone is scanning?

Our short link checks the device type and sends iPhones to the App Store and Android phones to Google Play, in a fraction of a second.

What if my app is only on one store?

That's fine. Add just that link; other devices see a page that explains where the app is available.

Is this a dynamic QR code?

Yes. The code holds a short link to a mobile page we host, so you can update the page after printing and see how many people scanned it. Free codes stay active for 30 days; Lifetime keeps them on for good.
