QlynkWhy does a Bolt link open in the browser?
A Bolt ride link opened from a message goes through the browser, which does not know the passenger’s account. Qlynk recognizes addresses like bolt.eu/en/ride and prepares them to open in the app. Bolt’s coverage varies by city: check it before you share.
How to do it with Qlynk
- Prepare your bolt.eu link with the language code, then /ride.
- Paste it into Qlynk. With Pro, choose the end of the link.
- Share it and test it on your phone.
On iPhone, Qlynk sends the original Bolt address: iOS opens the app if it’s installed, with no error message. On Android, the link opens the app, or the web page if the app isn’t installed. On a computer, the page opens as usual.
When is it useful?
- Helping your guests get to an event with a ride already prepared
- Putting a ride link in a practical guide for a seminar
- Printing a QR code at the entrance of a venue
- Measuring clicks on the ride link you send to customers
Which Bolt links open the app?
| Link type | Example address |
|---|---|
| Ride | https://bolt.eu/en/ride/ |
Paste any of these addresses into Qlynk: the short link you get will open Bolt on phones.
