Facebook's AppLinks


Facebook’s AppLinks : Hit More Than 1 Billion Deep Links & Adds Back Button For Previous App


This year at F8, Facebook’s developer event, the company announced an initiative called App Links. It’s a free and open-source solution for developers to enable deep linking between apps, which will mimic linking on the PC web.
 It’s also cross-platform between mobile and web content, as well as between mobile operating systems.

 App Links

App Links is a solution for linking app-to-app easily. This essentially give marketers and developers a way around the browser, instead going straight from one app to another. Today, Facebook has announced that developers have enabled more than one billion unique deep links with App Links.

This means that users can now deep link to more than one billion locations from their apps, a feature that many prominent apps have taken advantage of.

Additionally, Facebook has created a new app back button that allows apps like Redfin to help people go back and forth from one app to another.
