Hey guys, Is it possible to get an app's iTunes link before it is released? I'm pretty sure it's possible to do something like: http://itunes.com/link/my+app Where My App is the name of your app. Can anyone confirm this? Thanks.
Yup that will work as soon as the app shows up in iTunes. But I dont really why would you ever want to do this though?? EDIT: Scratch that. see post below
Oops. I messed up there. I thought he used linktoapp here So that wont work. Instead you`ll need to use this instead http://linktoapp.com/my+app Or if want to just post in these forums only then you can use the app tag like fearless said. Posting this.. [app]my app[/app] will result in this [app]my app[/app]
Thanks. So if my game is called "My Game", I can link it by: http://linktoapp.com/my+game ? I read on the site before that spaces are replaced by plus signs, right? I want to include a link in my app. Thanks.
Ahh. Now I get it. This way you`ll be able to put links to your other apps which havent even released yet, inside your previous app. So that you wont need to wait for the next update just to add these links. Smarty Boy Another thing you can do is create a webpage with links to all your apps, and put the link to that page in your previous apps. I`ve seen quite a few apps which use this. But having a direct link is even better
Hmm, when the app has a + in the url, Twitter replaces it as a space when I post the message from the api. Anyone has a solution? I heard getting your app ID and doing an iTunes link... EDIT: Never mind, I solved it by placing the url as a tinyurl.
