What is a SonyLIV deep link?

A SonyLIV deep link is a URL that opens a specific show, movie, or live event inside the SonyLIV mobile app instead of loading sonyliv.com in a web view. When someone taps a normal SonyLIV link inside another app (Instagram, WhatsApp, an email client), it usually opens in that app's built-in browser, where a login wall blocks playback.

U2L's SonyLIV app opener rewrites your link so that, on a phone, it opens straight in the app instead of a browser tab. The result: fewer login walls and viewers who actually start watching.

Behind the scenes the link is a normal short URL, so it works everywhere a link works - in bios, ads, emails, and messages.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is a SonyLIV deep link?

A link that opens a specific show, movie, or live event inside the native SonyLIV app rather than a web browser. U2L creates one from any sonyliv.com URL.

How do I open SonyLIV links in the app instead of the browser?

Paste your SonyLIV URL into the box above and share the U2L link you get back. On phones it opens the SonyLIV app directly.

Is U2L's SonyLIV app opener free?

Yes - creating SonyLIV app-opener links is free and needs no account. Sign up only if you want click analytics and link management.

Does it work on both iPhone and Android?

Yes. The link detects the device and opens the native SonyLIV app on iOS and Android, falling back to the web if the app isn't installed.

What happens if the SonyLIV app isn't installed?

The link gracefully falls back to opening the page on sonyliv.com in the browser, so no one hits a dead end.

Do viewers still need a SonyLIV subscription?

Yes - the link only opens the content in the app. Watching still depends on the viewer's own SonyLIV plan, exactly like a normal SonyLIV link.

Can I track clicks on my SonyLIV links?

The free links are anonymous and don't include analytics. Create a free U2L account to track clicks, devices, and locations on every link.

How is U2L different from other app openers?

U2L opens SonyLIV natively like any opener, but it's free with no ads, unlimited redirects, and a full 50+ feature link platform (analytics, QR codes, custom domains, Bio Pages, and an API) behind it when you're ready.
