Deep links questions

The practical details to check before putting this feature into a live campaign.

What is a deep link?
A deep link is a shareable URL that tries to open a specific video, profile, playlist, product, or other destination inside its native app—not just the app home screen or a web page.
Why use a deep link instead of the original URL?
Links shared on social often open inside an embedded browser where people may not be signed in. An app-first route removes that friction so it is easier to watch, follow, save, subscribe, or buy.
How does LinkStack decide where a click goes?
LinkStack reads the device and destination, tries the supported native app when appropriate, and keeps the original web page ready as the fallback if the app cannot open.
Do deep links work from Instagram and TikTok?
They are designed for links shared in bios, Stories, ads, and messages, including traffic from Instagram and TikTok. The exact handoff still depends on the source app, device, operating system, and whether the destination app is installed.
Which apps can LinkStack open?
LinkStack supports popular social, video, music, shopping, podcast, and travel apps. Use the supported-app list on this page for the current destinations.
Can I edit or track a deep link after sharing it?
Yes. Keep the public Link stable while updating its destination or fallback, and use LinkStack analytics to see clicks, devices, countries, and referrers.
Do deep links work on desktop?
Desktop clicks can use the web fallback, so the same public link can still work across devices.
Is this only for Amazon?
Amazon app handoff is the starting point, but the system is designed for broader deep-link flows.
