Huawei, OPPO, Xiaomi, and more launches OneLink app platform

Huawei, Xiaomi, OPPO, and Vivo jointly launched a OneLink app service platform. The new plan will enable developers to create a “one-link” app for several brands and devices. This will further offer a more efficient app download experience to users.

OneLink refers to a unified link service that helps developers create direct links for applications listed on the App Stores. It ultimately supports many platforms for app installation and provides developers with stable solutions for app promotions.

Developers from Huawei, OPPO, Xiaomi, Vivo, and Apple can benefit from the OneLink app platform. It offers an easy-to-understand as well as more convenient unified offline app distribution schemes to developers. The official OneLink site reads:

“Huawei, OPPO, vivo, Xiaomi, and Apple phones already support unified link apps to invoke seamless download services from the app store and other brands.”

Further inputs reveal that developers can obtain unified URL capabilities. It will eventually help to create app download links compatible with multiple App Stores. Thus, they can achieve cross-platform app promotion without using different links.

Apart from direct links, developers can also produce QR codes for apps that are already available in the App Stores. On the user end, one can click on the unified app link from any phone (Huawei, OPPO, Vivo, Xiaomi) or scan the QR code.

Doing so will directly lead them to the respective brand’s app store and they can easily, download, install, or upgrade the application. You can look for more details regarding the OneLink app platform and services HERE.
