Learn how to use the twitter:app:id:iphone meta tag to improve your site.

Defines the iPhone app ID in the Apple App Store for deep linking from tweets. This is part of Twitter Cards used to enhance tweets with rich media to direct users to web content directly or through an app.

Code Examples

<meta name="twitter:app:id:iphone" content="307234931" />
A valid example of an App Store ID used for the Twitter iPhone app, facilitating direct app opens or installations from tweets.
<meta name="twitter:app:id:iphone" content="abcdefgh" />
An invalid App Store ID consisting of characters instead of numbers. This will not correctly link to any app, leading to poor user experience.
<meta name="twitter:app:id:iphone" content="" />
An empty value, which would neglect the opportunity to direct users to your iPhone app from Twitter, missing out on potential app engagement or downloads.

Recommendations

  • Ensure Correct App ID
    Verify the accuracy of the App Store ID. An incorrect ID leads users to the wrong app, severely impacting user experience and app discovery.
  • App Store Visibility
    Make sure your app is publicly available on the App Store before using this meta tag. Linking to an unreleased or private app can confuse users and diminish trust.
