If you pass a link to a user and they select it on their iPad (for example, in the format of
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/appname/id364304764?mt=8), they will be forwarded on to the App Store app, with the Application information page presented to them. The user will have to explicitly press “Free” then “Install” to install the application. At this point, they will probably have to enter their iTunes password to continue.There is no way to circumvent this, everyone has to go through the same procedure to install an application; through the App Store*.
