Which Metacast links can LinkStack open?

LinkStack supports Direct podcast share links, Direct episode share links, and Podcast and episode pages matched when saved. Paste the original public URL and LinkStack keeps that page available as the fallback.

What happens if Metacast is not installed?

The visitor can continue to the original Metacast web page. The public LinkStack URL still works, so you do not need a separate desktop or fallback link.

Does the same deep link work on desktop?

Yes. Desktop visitors continue to the original Metacast page while supported mobile devices can try the app-first path.

Why deep link Metacast?

Use a direct Metacast share link, or share a podcast or episode page. Pages need a successful lookup when you save the link; if a match is unavailable, visitors continue on the web.

What you can open in Metacast

What happens after the tap

01
Recognize the destination
LinkStack recognizes the supported Metacast URL and keeps the original page intact.
02
Try the app-first route
On a supported mobile device, the click can move into Metacast instead of stopping at mobile web.
03
Keep the fallback ready
If the app handoff is unavailable—or the visitor is on desktop—the original Metacast page is still there.
