Set up an advanced App Clip experience with place association

A place association is an optional component that connects the App Clip to a physical location, and is needed for the experience to be invoked in Maps. Place association doesn’t guarantee inclusion in Apple Maps and may not be available in all regions.

If an App Clip is part of the location’s official app, it'll be approved for that location. If it’s not part of the official app, either the business owner must claim the location through Apple Business Connect and approve the App Clip to display, or the creator of the App Clip must be authorized as a partner on the business’ website.

  1. From Apps, select your app.

  2. In the sidebar, select the iOS app version for which you want to add an App Clip experience.

  3. Under Advanced App Clip Experiences, click Edit Advanced Experiences. A new page opens with general information on what to provide.
