If you visit webmd from your computer you see one page, but if you visit webmd from an iPhone not only do you get their mobile page (which is easily enough done), they also show you a special overlay with a “click to close” button which invites you to download their app.
Is there a component anywhere for this? Does anyone have any starters, links, or hints about the best way to go about doing this? I guess in principal it’s like a lightbox for photos but I’m looking for something specifically to invite downloads of the app.
It’s called a smart app banner
You basically add a special meta tag to your html
Include the app store id for the app you want to link to. app-argument url will be passed to the appropriate AppDelegate method.
