If the app you want to link to isn't in Bouncy's app registry, you can create a custom app link by providing your own URI scheme and parameters.
When to Use Custom App Links
The app you want to deep link into isn't one of the 8 supported apps
You have a specific URI scheme you want to use
You're working with a niche or regional app
How It Works
Go to Create App Link
Look for the Custom option
Enter the app's URI scheme and parameters manually
Bouncy will use your custom URI to attempt app opening, combined with your chosen bounce behavior
Tips for Custom App Links
Finding an App's URI Scheme
Most apps document their URI schemes in their developer documentation. Common patterns:
appname://path
Testing
Always test your custom app link on an actual device before sharing widely. URI scheme support varies between iOS and Android.
Fallback
If the app isn't installed, the visitor will be shown the web fallback (if one exists) or an error. Consider setting a fallback destination URL for visitors without the app.
Alternative: Use a Regular Deeplink
If you're having trouble with custom app links, you can always create a regular Deeplink with the full destination URL and use Aggressive bounce behavior. Bouncy's redirect logic will still attempt to open the content in the relevant app when possible.
