Check the phone’s installation path

Opening the link takes the person to the installation page with the community context. Instructions depend on the device and browser. Sharing or opening the link does not install the app automatically.

If the destination is wrong, return to Spread the app, correct the context and obtain the link again.

What you have achieved

  • You identified the correct community’s installation link.
  • You checked the QR and the recipient’s installation path.

Troubleshooting

I cannot see the QR command

The QR and flyer controls require Create flyers access. A person with only notice management access may see the sharing page without those controls.
