Internal Vs External Linking

Internal Vs External Linking

Internal Linking

Internal linking is a type of linking that connects your pages within your app to create a smooth and seamless user experience. It helps users navigate easily, keeps them engaged, and increases session time by guiding them to relevant content within the app.

External Linking

URLs can open in the device’s default browser or in supported apps like Google Maps or LinkedIn through deep links. While external links can improve user experience, they may take users away from the app and increase bounce rates.

A pop-up will open once you click on Configure in the Internal vs External card. Now, specify the rule you want to edit and select where the URL will open:

1. Internal(In App): The URL will open inside your app, using a built-in browser.

2. External Browser: It will show up in the device's default browser.

3. In-App Browser: This usually refers to URLs or links that open in the screen within the app, not in a web browser.

2. Multiple: Select multiple to update this rule on multiple pages. Enter the URL path that encompasses the pages where you want this rule.

3. Custom: If needed, use a custom regex pattern to apply the rule only on specific pages for better control.
