The simplest Firebase Dynamic Links alternative.
No SDK. No setup. No Firebase dependency. Create one professional app-download link and QR code for your iOS and Android launch.
Why developers switch to appqr.io
Zero SDK
No code integration. Just a URL. Works with any app, any framework.
QR codes included
FDL never had QR codes. We generate beautiful, customizable ones for free.
5 app stores
iOS, Android, Huawei, Samsung Galaxy, and Amazon. FDL only supported 2.
Built-in analytics
No Firebase Analytics setup needed. Clicks by device, country, and time — out of the box.
Firebase Dynamic Links vs appqr.io vs Branch
An honest comparison. We're not the right fit for enterprise deep linking — but for a professional single-app launch, appqr.io keeps routing and QR distribution simple.
