I have used the QR code from my current/classic app to save the webpage on users phone.
If the app moves to the new version, will the users still be able to use the page saved on their phone? Or what will happen to the URL generated from the QR code?
Thanks.
New apps have a different url structure compared to classic apps. Because of that, the url will be different and subsequently the qr code will also be different. If you used a custom domain, then you would be able to switch that custom domain to the new app without issue.
So basically all the work I’ve done to get the specific app onto peoples phone is now a waste and the app wont work once it gets migrated?
If you set your users up using a custom domain, you wouldn’t have to do anything and it would be automatic for the user once you migrate the custom domain to the new app.
Assuming you aren’t using a custom domain, then yes you will need to communicate the new url with your users. That could be as simple as sending an email with the new link to your users.
One thing you could do is add a banner or button in the classic app with a notification and link to the new app. That way, users can self migrate to using the new app.
This is really disappointing. I was using the glide provided QR code. This is teaching me to not use glide provided tools since they will be deprecated.
Also, when i first started my app I wasnt paying to see my users emails, so theres a significant amount of people I can’t email.
This is my worst case scenario with using a 3rd party app like Glide… at any product change all my users disappear and can’t use the app… so its not “as simple as”
