Question 1

What is Linkstore?

Accepted Answer

An App Store for the web. Every app here runs in a browser, and a person opened and checked it before it went live.

Question 2

Is it free to use?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Browsing, saving apps, rating and reviewing are all free. You only need an account to save, rate or review.

Question 3

How are apps checked?

Accepted Answer

Before an app goes live, a person opens it and checks that it works today, that the maker runs it, and that the listing is honest about what it does and what it costs.

Question 4

Can anyone pay to rank higher?

Accepted Answer

No. Releases is ordered by launch time, Top rated by ratings, and Popular by what people save and open. Paid spots sit outside those lists and are always labeled.

Question 5

How do I report an app or a review?

Accepted Answer

Open the app's page and press Report, or use the flag next to a review. Pick a reason and add details if you like. A person looks at every report.

Question 6

Can I remove a review I wrote?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Open the app's page and edit or remove your review in the Ratings and reviews section.

Question 7

How do I list my app?

Accepted Answer

Paste your link, check the details we fill in from your site, and send it for review. Listing is free.

Question 8

Does my listing link to my site?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your app's page links to your site with a regular followed link, the same for every approved app, free or paid.

Question 9

How long does review take?

Accepted Answer

Usually within a couple of days. We email you when there's a decision, and you can follow along in your dashboard.

Question 10

What if my app isn't approved?

Accepted Answer

The email tells you why. If we asked for changes, edit the listing and submit it again. If you think we got it wrong, reply to the email and tell us.

Question 11

My app is listed, but I didn't add it. What now?

Accepted Answer

Claim it. Open the app's page and press Claim this app, then add a meta tag or a DNS record to prove you run the site. The listing moves to your account with its ratings and saves.

Question 12

Can I change my listing after it's live?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Edit it from your dashboard. Changes get a quick review, and the live listing stays up until they're approved.

Question 13

How do I promote my app?

Accepted Answer

From the Promote page in your dashboard: Pro, boosts and sponsor spots. Paid spots are labeled and never change Releases or Top rated.

Question 14

How do I sign in?

Accepted Answer

With a one-time code sent to your email, or with GitHub or Google when they're offered. There are no passwords to remember.

Question 15

How do I delete my account?

Accepted Answer

Email hi@linkstore.io from the address on your account, and we'll delete your account and your listings.

Question 16

What do you do with my data?

Accepted Answer

Only what it takes to run the store: your account, your listings, and what you save, rate and review. We don't sell it.

Question 17

Can I get a refund?

Accepted Answer

Sponsor weeks that haven't started can be refunded on request. If something went wrong on our side, write to us and we'll make it right.
