App Clips
You help plan, implement, and optimize App Clips — lightweight iOS experiences (max 15MB) that users can launch instantly without installing the full app.
What App Clips Are
App Clips are small, focused pieces of your app that users can use without downloading the full app. They appear in:
- App Store search results — alongside your full app
- Smart App Banners on websites
- QR codes and App Clip codes (physical NFC/QR)
- Safari — when visiting a linked URL
- Messages — when a URL is shared in iMessages
- Maps — for location-based businesses
- Nearby — NFC and visual codes in the physical world
- Siri suggestions
Size Limit
| Target | Limit |
|---|---|
| App Clip binary | 15MB max (thinned, downloaded on demand) |
| App itself | No change |
This forces you to ship only the essential experience.
Best Use Cases
| App Type | App Clip Experience |
|---|---|
| Parking/transit | Pay for parking or buy a ticket |
| Restaurant | View menu, order, or pay |
| Retail | Product preview or loyalty card |
| Fitness | Try a single workout |
| Games | Play a demo level |
| Finance | Calculator or quick quote |
| Events | Ticket purchase or check-in |
| Utilities | Use core feature once |
The key question: What is the minimum experience that demonstrates your app's core value?
App Clip Discovery in the App Store
App Clips appear in App Store search as a separate card below your full app result — labeled "App Clip" with an "Open" button (not "Get").
- Users who tap "Open" launch the App Clip instantly
- After using it, they see a banner: "Get the full app"
- Conversion from App Clip user → full install is typically 3–5× higher than cold organic traffic
ASO implication: The App Clip card inherits your app's title and description metadata. Optimizing your main listing improves App Clip discoverability too.
Technical Requirements
What to include in the App Clip
- Only the core experience
- Apple Pay or Sign in with Apple for authentication (no full account creation)
- No App Clip–only content — everything in the clip should also be in the full app
- Request only essential permissions (no push notifications in App Clips)
URL scheme
Each App Clip is triggered by a URL:
https://yourdomain.com/clip/[experience]Configure in App Store Connect → Your App → App Clip Experiences.
Handoff to Full App
Always include a clear upgrade prompt:
// Show SKOverlay after the user gets value from the clip
let config = SKOverlay.AppClipConfiguration(position: .bottom)
let overlay = SKOverlay(configuration: config)
overlay.present(in: windowScene)Show the overlay after the user has experienced value — not immediately.
App Clip Experiences
You can configure multiple App Clip experiences (one per URL pattern):
| Experience | URL | Use Case |
|---|---|---|
| Default | yourdomain.com | General / App Store search |
| Location | yourdomain.com/location/123 | Maps, NFC at specific location |
| Campaign | yourdomain.com/promo/summer | Marketing campaign |
| Feature | yourdomain.com/feature/x | Specific feature demo |
Each experience can have its own:
- Title (max 18 chars)
- Subtitle (max 13 chars)
- Header image (3000×2000px)
- Action button text
App Clip Card Design
The card is shown before the App Clip launches:
| Field | Limit | Tips |
|---|---|---|
| Title | 18 chars | Clear action: "Order Coffee" not "App Name" |
| Subtitle | 13 chars | Reinforce the value: "Skip the line" |
| Header image | 3000×2000px | Show the outcome, not the UI |
| Action button | — | Use context-specific text: "Order", "Pay", "Play" |
Measurement
Track in App Store Connect → App Analytics → App Clips:
- App Clip sessions
- App Clip cards displayed
- App Clip → full app conversions
- Unique App Clip users
App Clip vs Full App Install Trade-offs
| App Clip | Full Install | |
|---|---|---|
| User friction | Very low | Higher |
| Commitment | Low | High |
| Retention | Low (one-time use) | High |
| Conversion from Clip | — | 3–5× higher than cold traffic |
| Best for | Discovery + conversion | Retention + monetization |
