Firebase app indexing without web content


Is it possible to implement Firebase App Indexing for your app if it does not have any web content. App is a stand-alone offline app with no online/web content.

I want the search results in "In-apps" tab of Google search, to show the results from my app.

Is it possible ? If yes, how ?


Solution

  • Yes, for Android apps, there is a new feature of Firebase App Indexing that allows you to index content driven by user discovery. The feature is generally referred to as "personal content indexing". The idea is that as the user browses content in your app, you record those interactions with Firebase App Indexing. Then, that content becomes searchable from the Google search box on the device.
