Where to find it

How agencies will use this

An agency running a marketing campaign for a client with a dedicated mobile app can use this feature. Instead of distributing separate QR codes for iOS and Android app stores, they can now generate a single App QR Code within HighLevel. They will navigate to QR Codes, create a new QR code, and select 'App'. They will then input the Apple App Store URL for iOS, the Google Play Store URL for Android, and a general website URL as a fallback. This single QR code can then be used on all marketing materials, such as print ads, client websites, or email footers. When a lead scans the QR code, HighLevel automatically directs them to the correct store to download the app, simplifying the user experience and reducing campaign complexity for the agency.

Our take

This is a major update for agencies whose clients use dedicated mobile apps. It simplifies the user experience for app downloads. HighLevel has not confirmed rollout status, plan gating, or who exactly is affected, which means some users might not see it yet or might have specific access requirements.
