App Store QR Code
iOS and Android — one QR code handles both.
An App Store QR code detects the user's device and redirects them to the correct store automatically — Apple App Store for iPhone users, Google Play Store for Android users. Desktop visitors see a page with both options. One QR code for all your app install campaigns.

What is a App Store QR Code?
An App Store QR code automatically detects the scanner's device operating system and redirects iOS users to your Apple App Store listing and Android users to your Google Play Store listing — with no manual selection required. Desktop scanners see a landing page with both download options. This eliminates the common problem of QR codes for apps that only work for one platform.

Best practices for app store qr codes
Include both store URLs even if your app is on one platform
If your app is iOS-only, still create an App Store QR code (leaving the Android field blank) rather than a plain URL code. The landing page will clearly show iOS-only availability to Android users rather than sending them to a broken page.
Add your app icon to the desktop landing page
Desktop users who scan your code see a landing page. Including your app icon and name makes this page recognisable and trustworthy, increasing the likelihood they will forward the link to their phone.
Use UTM parameters in your store URLs for attribution
Both Apple App Store and Google Play support campaign tracking via their respective attribution systems. Add UTM or campaign parameters to your store URLs before encoding them in the QR code.
