About

URLgenius is a cloud-based mobile deep-linking and QR code platform that lets marketers generate smart links that open a specific screen inside a mobile app instead of simply redirecting users to a website. With a few clicks, no SDKs or coding required, you paste a standard web URL into URLgenius’s dashboard and it outputs a “deep link” that detects whether the user has the target app installed; if yes, it opens the corresponding app screen, and if not, it sends the user to a fallback URL (mobile site or app store). It supports a wide range of popular apps, social, retail, marketplaces, utilities, and works even from embedded browsers (e.g., inside social-media apps), overcoming limitations of normal links. Beyond deep linking, it can generate QR codes tied to those smart links, enabling seamless transitions from offline marketing (print, packaging, signage) or cross-device campaigns directly into apps.
