Plate IV FAQ ## Questions **Does Dub support deferred deep linking?** Yes, from the Pro plan at $27 a month. On Android it reads the Install Referrer; on iOS it uses a clipboard copy or an IP-based match, and the app reports the open to Dub. **Is Dub an MMP?** No. Dub is a link management platform with conversion tracking for leads and sales. The pages we read do not describe install attribution for paid ad networks or SKAN, which an MMP handles. **What is a deep linking tool?** A deep linking tool creates links that open a specific screen inside a mobile app instead of the home screen or a web page. Good tools also handle users without the app, sending them to the store and then to the right screen after install. **What is deferred deep linking?** Deferred deep linking keeps the link's destination through an app install. A user who taps a link without the app goes to the store, installs, opens the app and still lands on the screen the link promised. **Do I need an MMP to deep link?** No. Link tools such as Dub, Bitly or Short.io can open an installed app. You need an MMP when you also want to know which ad, creator or campaign drove each install, because MMPs tie the link click to the install and to in-app events. **What replaced Firebase Dynamic Links?** Nothing from Google. Firebase Dynamic Links shut down on 25 August 2025 and its links now return HTTP 404. Teams moved to MMPs with built-in linking, such as Linkrunner, Adjust, AppsFlyer, Branch or Singular, or to link tools such as Dub or Bitly.
