Google has recently announced that it will offer app indexing support to iOS apps. This strategy can boost business growth for iOS mobile app developers and provide ease of installation for the smartphone users.

App Indexing

App indexing helps you to engage your app users and enhance app installations directly from Google search results. It signifies that users, who have the application installed, will be able to open the contents of the same directly from the search page. People who do not have your app installed can also get the opportunity of loading the application.

To have clear understanding, look at this example. Suppose, you have a digital cab booking catalog and Google has registered the application content. If a mobile user has installed your app and is searching for an air- conditioned cab, then Google can pop up a link directly to the booking option within the application. If a user has not installed the app, Google shows an installation button for the same.
See how App Indexing API can enable query completion automatically and drive re- engagements among mobile users.

The Recent Development

Google started to provide app indexing support for android app developers from 2013. By seeing the adoptability pattern of mobile usage, it has now planned to extend such support to iOS app marketers. This will enable iOS mobile phone users to gather the details of an iOS app directly from Google search.

In nutshell, iOS mobile application developers have to add markup to their apps, submit a specialized sitemap file to Google through Google Search Console and conduct proper checks with their apps.

Google has declared that iOS mobile phone users will be witnessing applications show up in search results in both Google Chrome and Google App in coming weeks. This provision will be available for signed in users.
