How to open links in the app (deep linking)
Make a Smart Link open Telegram, WhatsApp, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Spotify, Amazon or Discord in the native app instead of the browser — with a safe web fallback. Higher conversion, and it helps escape in-app browsers. It’s a single toggle.
Deep links open your destination inside the native app instead of a browser tab — a Telegram, WhatsApp, Instagram, YouTube, Spotify or Amazon link that lands in the app, with a safe web fallback for anyone who does not have it installed. In-app opens keep people logged in and convert better.

Frequently asked questions
Which apps are supported?
Deep linking covers major apps including Telegram, WhatsApp, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Spotify, Amazon and Discord, each with a web fallback so no one hits a dead end.
What if the visitor doesn't have the app installed?
They fall back to the normal web version automatically, so the link always works — the app simply opens directly when it is available.
Why open in the app instead of a browser?
In-app opens keep people signed in, load faster and convert better. A Spotify or Amazon link that opens the app beats one that bounces through a mobile browser and asks the user to log in again.
