Ok ok ok…someone help me out here. How come sometimes I get a pretty link to an app, like this one: > **[House Points](https://housepoints.glideapp.io/)** > > This is an app that can help you manage a school wide competition. And sometimes it just shows up like this: [housepoints.glideapp.io](http://housepoints.glideapp.io)? I know that the link has to be on its own line…does it have something to do with it being a public app vs a private one (one in which users need to sign in)? ---

The https makes the difference. As far as I can tell (and I made some tests some weeks ago) ---

Maybe having a description for the app? That’s the main difference I see between your two apps. ---

A little liquid knowledge helps sometimes. ---

Would be great if it also showed the app icon. Would make it more like a Twitter card. ---

Yeah…it is supposed to show the icon. Maybe it only does when viewing it on a desktop.
