Firebase Dynamic Links alternative for creator programs
Firebase Dynamic Links stopped accepting new links. If you used those links so creators could send people to your app, Tap App Link is the replacement for that affiliate program.
What Dynamic Links used to do
Teams put a Firebase Dynamic Link in a bio, a story, or an email. The link sent iOS users to the App Store, Android users to Play, and desktop users to a fallback. After install, the app could read leftover link data. Google stopped accepting new Dynamic Links. Existing links have a sunset window.
What Tap App Link does for the same job
Each creator gets a URL on go.tapapplink.com. The click routes to the App Store, Play, or a desktop QR. The SDK matches the first open to that click. That is the store-routing half of Dynamic Links, plus a creator affiliate program: dashboards, commissions, and invoices.
- Per-creator links and dashboards
- Discount codes on Pro when the viewer types a code instead of using the link
- Purchase revenue from RevenueCat, Superwall, Adapty, or Qonversion
- Sandbox testing with a live debugger
When this is the right replacement
Use Tap App Link when Dynamic Links existed to run a creator program or affiliate links for in-app purchases. Use a general deep-link product when you need every screen in the app to open from an arbitrary URL.
Branch is the usual paid-ads replacement for Dynamic Links. See Tap App Link vs Branch if your traffic is ads rather than creators.
Frequently asked questions
What replaced Firebase Dynamic Links for creator programs?
Tap App Link gives each creator a tracked link that routes to the App Store or Play, matches the install, and attaches in-app purchases. That is the Dynamic Links job when the goal is paying creators.
Does Tap App Link host generic deep links?
Tap App Link routes creator links to the store or a desktop QR, then attributes the install in your app. Use a universal-link setup when every screen needs its own URL.
