This guide explains what deep links are, why they matter for mobile apps, the various deep‑linking techniques (URL schemes, App/Universal Links, H5 links, and deferred deep links), and provides step‑by‑step Android implementation examples with code snippets.
This article explains the concept of DeepLink, its iOS and Android application scenarios, the design of deployment links across versions, the integration of APK Signature Scheme v2, and the caching strategies (Caffeine) used to efficiently serve channel‑specific packages in a backend service.
The article reveals that Android’s Activity mReferrer field, derived from Context.getBasePackageName(), can be forged by overriding getBasePackageName(), outlines its data flow from ActivityTaskManagerService to Activity.attach, and recommends using the immutable UID via Binder.getCallingUid() for reliable source verification.
