How to transfer a referral to android applications

Question

Did not answer, almost the same question

Explain my purpose:
I have an apk URL, which can be on the market (for example: Google Play , Bazaar , etc.) or it can be a direct link to the apk file.

Explain my requirements
I will need to install a referral link in order to translate it into the application when it is installed on the device.
Now we all know that Google Play will transfer the referral (Attribution Campaign) to the application, but our home market ( Bazaar ) will not.

Explain my problem
Is there anyway to transfer referrals manually? if there is any way, I would change the link to all links to a specific link that I will create for them to get referral information.

In another word
Do I need the referrer to cause the download when the application is installed successfully, to understand who is the real person who downloads and installs this application from anywhere?

Additional Information
My priority is not related to the development of a new application to work as a new market, but there are no restrictions on the technical method that you offer. In other words, I need some useful data (for example: Who Download, Who Installed from where, Who Is Active, etc.) About the application that I call to install them.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

After searching and thinking, I found an alternative way to do this in direct download.

The solution reached by me is given below:

• I have apk application files on my server
• When the user client arrives on the download page, I will create a file containing data that makes this download a unique and famous download.
• Then I will add this file to apk source and rebuild and leave the package (for example: using apktool )
• I also have to write a custom SDK to read the file in a specific path (if any) and send the data to my server to get the client information that I need.

In fact, this script is already in abstract mode, so I should try to make it executable

Perhaps you can create different apk flavors (with the same application identification) for different host servers / markets. In different tastes, you can hard code the variable / constant of the server / market identifier, and the identifier must be unique for each flavor.

So, when the user opens the application, based on the identifier value, you can determine the URL of the market / server where the application is downloaded from.

You can also try Google analytics in different apk . To track installation, you can create various installation events for different tastes.
I have not tried this. Hope for this help
