# twitter:app:url:googleplay

Legacy Twitter App Card field for an Android app’s custom URL scheme. It is a deep link, not a Google Play listing URL. X has retired its public App Card reference.

## Code examples

Good example

```
<meta name="twitter:app:url:googleplay" content="myapp://articles/123">
```

A custom scheme deep link handled by the Android app.

Avoid this example

```
<meta name="twitter:app:url:googleplay" content="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.example">
```

This historical field expected the app’s custom URL scheme, not its store page.

Avoid this example

```
<meta name="twitter:app:url:googleplay" content="">
```

An empty value provides no deep link.

## Recommendations

- 01 Use a Tested Deep Link Provide a custom scheme URL that the Android app handles and that opens the matching content.
- 02 Legacy Field Test the result on X before relying on it. The detailed official App Card documentation is no longer published.
