Now i would like to have, that there a link is beeing shown. (on phones with android and IOS only) Like on the example.

How can i do this in magento. Does anyone has an example for this?

Answer 1

To do that you need to do more or less the following:

1. Detect User Agent sent by the visitors browser.
2. Using regex decide if this an Android or iOS device.
3. Have a block inserted in the Header which according to detected device either displays link to App on Google Play Store or Apple's App Store, or displays nothing.
