Open Airbnb links in the app
Paste a Airbnb URL and get a link that opens the Airbnb app instead of the browser — with a web fallback for everyone else.
Free forever. No login. Works with airbnb.com links.
Which Airbnb links work
toThe.App recognises links on airbnb.com, airbnb.co.uk, and other airbnb.* domains. These URL shapes are handled:
- https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/LISTING_ID
On iPhone
Listing URLs open to that listing in the app.
On Android
The Airbnb app opens when it is installed, and the browser takes over when it is not.
Known limitations
No link can force a phone to open an app. These are the cases where a Airbnb link falls back to the web:
- Search and experience URLs are not covered and fall back to the web.
- Check-in and check-out dates in the query string may be dropped by the app.
Questions
How do I make a Airbnb link open in the app?
Paste the Airbnb URL into the generator above and select Make short link. Share the result. On a phone with Airbnb installed, the link offers to open the app; otherwise it continues to the Airbnb website.
Which Airbnb URLs are supported?
Links on airbnb.com, airbnb.co.uk, and other airbnb.* domains are recognised. Typical shapes: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/LISTING_ID.
What happens on iPhone?
Listing URLs open to that listing in the app.
What happens on Android?
The Airbnb app opens when it is installed, and the browser takes over when it is not.
Why did the Airbnb app not open?
The device makes the final call. Common reasons: the app is not installed, the specific URL type is not covered (Search and experience URLs are not covered and fall back to the web.), or the link was tapped inside another app's in-app browser, which will not hand off to a native app. The web fallback always works.
