Doesn't this only work if the app is already installed? Because if the App Store is opened instead then the link data is lost AFAIK


No, actually our links work and deep link even if the app is not already installed. We build deep link that always work, using fingerprinting if we have never seen the user before. So basically any data you embed in the link becomes available after install. Here is how our links work: https://branch.io/links/


The link to GitHub is broken...


Sorry, the repository was still private. Here it is: https://github.com/BranchMetrics/Branch-iOS-Invite-SDK
