It seems that when configuring an App Clip default link in H5, it does not always work consistently. Often, the first or second click does not activate the clip card, but the third time does. This issue occurs regularly, and it appears that the aasa file has already been uploaded because universal links are functioning correctly.
Since the button is specifically designed to launch the clip card, if it does not work, there will be no effect for users, which can be confusing. This is unlike universal links that can redirect to the H5 page if the app fails to open.
Any suggestion?

Can I use eSIM download / install using an App-Clip? I know this requires entitlement.
If it is possible, can you please let me know how it works.
Thanks!
Hi!
Faced with the problem of opening the app clip of the application (qr code, nfc, etc.).
In the main target, two entries have been added in associated domains
applinks:menusa.app
appclips:menusa.app
The same entries are also in the app clip's target.
An apple-application-site-association file has been added to our website (in the root and in the folder .well-known) - https://menusa.app/.well-known/apple-app-site-association
In the appstoreconnect, we have added an advanced experience for the appclip, which should handle opening by url https://menusa.app/waiter (for example https://menusa.app/waiter/1e3d4jdjdk44(some id))
After making a diagnosis (in the phone settings) I see that by url - https://menusa.app/waiter there is no registered advanced experience for the app clip, but a smart banner has been added to our site and this is displayed in the diagnostics.
I am sure that our AASA file is correct, because our application can handle universal links.
Can you tell me what I'm missing?
Hi there!
We're working on building an AppClip, and would like to promote it by sending it via SMS message to our users. We'll be sending these SMS messages via Twillio, using an approved Toll Free phone number. We have just found out here (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/665827?answerId=644691022#644691022) that the recipients of AppClip URL have to have the sender saved in contact in order to see the preview of AppClip on iMessage (a photo with "open" button) and open AppClip directly from iMessage (as opposed to be led to our website where they can click another button to open the AppClip). That pretty much defeats the purpose of this AppClip, since most users, who wouldn't have saved our marketing number as contact, would receive a text message with an URL string and no image - suspicious looking. Would anyone know:
Is there any way we could promote AppClip via marketing SMS messages, that would lead to a smoother user experience?
Would a 10DLC number (instead of Toll Free phone number) help?
Would Apple Messages for Business (https://register.apple.com/resources/messages/messaging-documentation/) be able send AppClip previews and direct open, without recipients having to save the sender as a contact?
Thank you!
