Be sure, that you have deeplinking enabled in your android app! I recommend you check out this plugin: https://github.com/EddyVerbruggen/Custom-URL-scheme
In your Cordova application do:
cordova plugin add google-app-indexing-cordova`
For Ionic:
ionic plugin add google-app-indexing-cordova`
When you add the plugin, there is a global AppIndexing object available, after cordova has loaded. This object has two methods: startView and endView with following signatures:
AppIndexing.startView(title, description, webPath, androidPath, success, error)
and
AppIndexing.endView(title, description, webPath, androidPath, success, error)
Whenever a user of your app starts viewing content in your app, just call the startView method,
and when they leave the page call endView with exactly the same arguments.
Note: I think, Google is measuring the time the customer stays on that page to prevent that you simply push all of your content to the App Indexing. It can lead to your app not being indexed at all, if they see such behaviour.
If you're confused about the two paths, please read on https://developers.google.com/app-indexing first.
The webPath is your content accessible via the web (e.g. http://example.com/path/to/some-content). Whereas the androidPath is
the deeplink to your android app in the style of android-app://{app package identifier}/{scheme}/{path}}
(e.g. android-app://de.example.com/https/path/to/some-content). Ideally the path should be the same for web and deeplink,
but that's up to you.
