Why an app download QR code
A printed app promotion usually carries two store badges, and readers still have to pick one and search for the app by name. An app download QR code sends every scan to one address you choose: your own download page, a smart link from your attribution tool or a single store listing. On plans with smart redirect, rules can send iPhones to the App Store and Android phones to Google Play from the same printed code.
- One code on the flyer instead of a separate badge and code for each store.
- Accepts any https:// address — a landing page, a deep link from your attribution tool or a store page.
- Change where the code leads when you launch on a new platform, with no new print.
- Device rules in smart redirect split iOS and Android scans on plans that include it.
Products with a companion app
Smart plugs, cameras and fitness gear point owners to the setup app as soon as the box is opened.
Restaurant and loyalty apps
A table tent or receipt invites guests to install the ordering or rewards app before they pay.
Transport and parking
Signs at stops and car parks lead to the ticket or parking app, so drivers pay without hunting for a machine.
Banks and mobile operators
Branch posters and SIM packaging take customers to the official app rather than a lookalike in search results.
Launch campaigns
Outdoor posters drive sign-ups to a pre-registration page now and to the store listings on release day.

What is this QR code?
This type accepts a web destination and saves a hosted short link to it. The generator does not upload application binaries, install software or automatically select an operating-system store.
Best use cases
- ✓Product inserts explaining a companion app.
- ✓Onboarding posters linking to a download landing page.
- ✓Event signage pointing attendees to the official event app.
- ✓Shop windows promoting a discount available only in the app.
How to generate your QR code
Choose the official store URL or a download page you manage.
Enter that address as the destination of the code.
Label the app and any supported devices clearly.
Try the code on both platforms before printing to confirm each reaches a working download.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the app install after scanning?
No. The store or download site handles installation and the user confirms the next steps.
Can one code serve Android and iPhone users?
Yes, if your supplied landing page offers both destinations. This field alone does not automatically choose between them.
Can smart redirect send iPhones and Android phones to different stores?
Yes, on plans that include it. Add a device rule for iOS that points to your App Store listing and one for Android that points to Google Play; every other device follows the main link.
When should I use App Store or Google Play codes instead?
When the app exists on one platform only, or when you print a separate code for each store. App download is meant for a single code that serves everyone.
Can I link a TestFlight or beta invitation?
Yes, any https:// link works. Public beta links can fill up or expire, so check the link shortly before a print run.
Can I track installs that came from the code?
QR Global counts scans. To count installs, use a store campaign link or an attribution link as the destination; the store or your tool then reports installs for that campaign.
What should the printed design say?
Name the app and the benefit in a few words, for example Track your order in the app, and show which devices it supports.
What if the app is removed from a store?
Point the code at your website or a notice page. Since the code is dynamic, printed promotions stay useful instead of ending on an error page.
