A link click and an app install happen on two different screens, seconds or days apart. Deferred deep linking and install attribution close that gap: the first carries a link's destination through the install so a new user lands on the right screen instead of a generic home screen, and the second matches that install back to the click that caused it, so a team knows which link, campaign, or channel actually drove growth. This collection covers both, platform by platform: iOS, Android, React Native, and Flutter, plus how to attribute installs from your own links without IDFA. WarpLink handles deferred deep linking and install attribution as part of one SDK, alongside real-time analytics, so a click and the install it produces are already connected before you write a line of matching logic. Pick a platform below to get started.
Implement deferred deep linking on iOS with Swift. Follow first launch matching, IDFV limits, confidence routing, and device tests without an IDFA prompt.
Implement deferred deep linking on Android with Kotlin. Use the Play Install Referrer, handle missing referrers, route first opens, and test on real devices.
Set up deferred deep linking in React Native for iOS and Android. Use one callback, gate navigation, check match confidence, and test real first installs.
Deferred deep linking Flutter guide: route the first open after install with one WarpLink 1.1.1 callback, plus first-open test steps and confidence scoring.
Install attribution connects a new install back to the click that caused it. How to attribute link-driven installs on iOS and Android without an MMP.
How to track app installs from a link on iOS and Android: the redirect, the first-launch match, what the confidence scores mean, and a seven step setup.
Install attribution without IDFA on iOS: what ATT changed, the signals that remain, what Apple's rules say, how confidence and match windows work.
Compare six install attribution options for small apps, from store reports and DIY referrers to link-focused services and full MMPs.
