summary
Hands-on guide to Branch integration for Android Instant Apps showing exact steps: add the SDK to the instant feature module, set an app.link domain and Branch key, add intent filters and default URL, initialize Branch in Application and onStart, override onNewIntent, and parse referringParams. Uses Branch’s show install prompt to pass link data through Play Store and an install listener to restore it in the full app. Claims a conversion lift from 77% to 98–99%, Ticketmaster example works, and integration is a 10-minute process.
