Area: App Store Summary: I'd like to be able to link to an app in the App Store with a link containing a referrer code. For example: http://itunes.apple.com/app/id0987654321?referrer=1234567890 Next, upon first launch, the value of "referrer", "1234567890" would be available via the launchOptions dictionary passed to the application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: method. Steps to Reproduce: 1. User clicks a link (http://itunes.apple.com/app/id0987654321?referrer=1234567890) from their iOS device, which opens a particular app in the App Store. 2. User taps the Download button to open the app. 3. Upon first app launch, launchOptions dictionary should contain referrer key. Expected Results: launchOptions should contain referrer information Actual Results: launchOptions does not any referrer information Version: iOS 10.2.1 Notes: Android provides functionality for this, which they call the InstallReferrerReceiver.
