HighLevel Adds App QR Codes for Direct App Store Links

TL;DR

App QR Codes are now available in HighLevel. Users create a single QR code that directs mobile users to the appropriate app store for download.

Who this affects

HighLevel has not confirmed who is affected by this update. Agencies and SaaS entrepreneurs looking to streamline app downloads for their clients will find this relevant.

What changed

App QR Codes are now available in HighLevel. This new functionality allows users to generate a single QR code that intelligently directs users to the correct app store based on their device type.

Specifically:

• iPhone users are sent to the App Store.
• Android users are sent to Google Play.
• Other devices can be sent to a custom fallback URL, providing flexibility for unsupported platforms or alternative landing pages.

Users select the 'App QR Code' type during creation and then add their specific app store links for both iOS and Android. HighLevel has not confirmed any limits, plan gating, or the rollout status of this feature.

Where to find it

HighLevel has not published the exact location within the product for this feature. Based on its functionality, it will likely reside in a section related to QR code generation, possibly alongside other marketing tools or under a dedicated 'Assets' or 'Marketing' tab within a sub-account or agency view.

How agencies will use this

An agency might use this for a client launching a new mobile application. Instead of providing separate links for iOS and Android, they can generate one App QR Code within HighLevel. This QR code can be placed on websites, marketing materials, or physical signage. When a prospect scans the code, their device is automatically detected, and they are redirected to the correct app store, simplifying the download process and improving user experience. This reduces friction in the customer journey for app adoption.

Our take

This is a major update for agencies supporting clients with mobile apps. It simplifies the user experience for app downloads, eliminating the need for conditional redirects or manual platform detection. While HighLevel has not confirmed who is affected, its significance for app-focused businesses is clear. There is no need to act immediately, but agencies should be aware of this tool for future client engagements. The precise location and rollout status remain unconfirmed, but the core functionality is a practical addition.
