We are taking that, you have already implemented Twitter Cards in some way or the other, may be you are using some solo WordPress Plugin or may be some SEO Plugin. This is the first step, you must pass.

 

Steps For Twitter Card iTunes, iOS App Links Implementation

 

We fill first refer to Twitter’s official guideline :

Vim

https://dev.twitter.com/docs/cards/app-installs-and-deep-linking

 

Unfortunately, Twitter has not said in very consumable, palatable way. The first thing is that; use Header & Footer or some Plugin or Theme Function which will insert meta data in your WordPress Website. Clearly know – these set can reside a bit far way from the other Meta related to Twitter Cards.

This is called Link Maker of iTunes :

Vim

https://linkmaker.itunes.apple.com/us/

 

Basically, that is used to create Buttons Like this :

 

 

Irrespective of type of App, you will find the Link, looking like this :

Vim

https://itunes.apple.com/in/podcast/thecustomizewindows-podcast/id788237000?mt=2&uo=4

788237000

twitter:app:name:iphone is the Name of your App. twitter:app:id:iphone is the number we have shown above. But, what will be the URL in twitter:app:url:iphone ? Here is a trick. What I found, appending the ID after the Equals Sign makes it a working link :

https://userpub.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZUserPublishing.woa/wa/addUserReview?id=YourID
# For My Example, YourID is , so the full link will be
https://userpub.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZUserPublishing.woa/wa/addUserReview?id=788237000

This is the URL which triggers to open the iTunes App Store. Actually, the whole proper URL should be :

Vim
1
https://userpub.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZUserPublishing.woa/wa/addUserReview?id=788237000&type=AppDev+Name

As I used a Podcast URL to test, &Type= is not required. It will only be required if there are two same named Apps. Three things for one set – iPhone, Three things for another set – iPad. Total six lines :
