  Use deep links to bring your users into your apps from social posts or
  search.
</p>

<h1>Deep Linking from Google+ Posts</h1><hr>
</div>

<p>
  <a href="https://developers.google.com/+/mobile/android/share/deep-link">Deep
  linking</a> allows the Google+ apps on mobile devices to direct clicks on a
  shared post that contains deep-link information to a resource within your
  apps.
</p>

<p style="margin-bottom:2em;">
  If the user doesn’t have your app installed, they’re prompted to install it
  before accessing the resource.

<h1>Deep Linking from Google Search &mdash; App Indexing</h1><hr>

<p>
  Another way to bring users back to your apps is to apply for app indexing.
</p>

<p>
  When a user searches for content available within your app, Google can show
  an "Open in App" button in in mobile search results. For instance, if a user
  searches for a restaurant and you’ve got that establishment in your dining
  app, a link can be shown to open the page within your app. Learn more about
  <a href="https://developers.google.com/app-indexing/">linking to in-app
  content</a>.
