Get working Universal Links for your app in minutes. We host your link config file, validate it, and check if Apple actually fetched it. No server setup needed, no silent failures. Works with your domain or ours.
App Link Host
Hi everyone!
I’m a longtime indie iOS dev with several apps on the App Store. Many of them use Universal Links, the Apple framework that lets users open your app directly from a web URL (great for drip emails, sharing app content, and support flows).
But one piece of the setup always sucked: generating and hosting the AASA file, which is required for Universal Links to work. I love building efficient content websites (one of my apps has thousands of shares a day), but wrangling domains, configuring hosting, and making sure everything was up to Apple’s expectations felt like a waste of time.
So I built App Link Host to take the hosting pain away. It handles:
✅ Generating a valid AASA file (no malformed JSON)
✅ Hosting it the way Apple expects (no silent failures)
✅ Verifying Apple actually fetched your file
✅ Showing fallback pages in the Universal Link domain if the app isn’t installed.
All that's left for you is to implement link handling in your app. No DNS config, no server setup, no guessing. It’s saved me hours, hopefully it saves you some too.
Happy to answer any questions or hear how you’re handling links in your apps!

@yood App Link Host nails Universal Links setup in minutes with zero-server hassle and real-time validation -- huge win for iOS conversions. Upvoted! Congrats on launch – I launched my product too, feel free to check it out.
setting up deep linking always felt like a tiny trap waiting to waste my afternoon. This helped me dodge it completely, and my future self is grateful.
Had no idea Apple could silently fail the link fetch. This showed me exactly where the process was going wrong in one of my apps.

@filxa_adam I know! All of the failures are silent: a malformed AASA file, a misconfigured server, a mistyped App ID Prefix or Bundle ID.
