<p>Google Search now helps users discover your app, with App Indexing. When users
|
||
search with Google on their Android device the results will include details of
|
||
relevant, indexed apps. The search results will include an install button that
|
||
takes users to your app in the Google Play store. And when your app is
|
||
installed, the user will be taken straight to the right content within it.</p>

<p>This free service expands your opportunities to turn the investment you’ve made
|
||
in creating an outstanding app or game into installs. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Start now by adding deep linking support to your app, verifying your app’s
|
||
official website, and defining deep links. To learn how, check out these <a
|
||
href="https://developers.google.com/app-indexing/webmasters/details">instructions</a>. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Once your app is index, links to its content will join the 30 billion app index
|
||
links already available to Google Search.</p>

<ul>
|
||
<li> App Indexing will also be used as a ranking signal for all users on Android,
|
||
regardless of whether they have your app installed or not.
|
||
<li> App Indexing also helps drive use of your app — when your app is installed on a
|
||
user’s device, search results will include deep links to your app that bring
|
||
the user straight to the relevant app content.
|
||
<li> Use the App Indexing API to help users discover relevant content in your app
|
||
before they complete a query with auto-completions.
