Google Firebase's Message on Dynamic Links shutdown

Received a Firebase email about the shutdown of their dynamic links product on Aug 25, 2025? Here's the breakdown.

Breaking it Down

Firebase shut down its dynamic links product on August 25, 2025. This feature has proved useful for customers who wanted to improve app installs, or deeplink into their apps from external apps. We had previously published this article explaining this product and its use cases. It now covers Branch and ChottuLink

• Firebase Dynamic links: Shut down on August 25, 2025.
• Branch.io Quick links: Similar product offered by Branch.io (check their current plans)
• Chottulink.com Quick links: Similar product offered by Chottulink.com (check their current plans)

Implications for Your Existing App

If you were using firebase dynamic links feature (via firebase console or the 'BN - create dynamic link' workflow in your bubble app), you can now request a rebuild with Branch.io and / or Chottulink.com integrated into your new build.

• We have added support for branch.io integration starting June 1, 2025, and chottulink.com integration starting October 10, 2025 .
• To do this, simply head to your bdk project page and you will see a Branch.io integration and Chottulink integration section in the build settings.
• The section links to a 5-minute step-by-step guide. Complete it, fill out the missing info, and save build settings.
• Then tap Request rebuild on your project's Dashboard. It comes out of your banked rebuilds (every build purchase comes with 4, valid for 12 months from payment). None left? An extra rebuild is $19 in the Purchases tab (prices as of 19 October 2026)
• Once you have the rebuild, publish it as an update from your own App Store Connect and Play Console. Then update the Native apps (bdk) plugin in your bubble app, and you can use the 'BN - Create Branch Deeplink' / 'BN - Create ChottuLink Deeplink' workflow

When to do this?

Right away, if you haven't already. Since August 25, 2025, all Firebase dynamic links have stopped working, even the ones created earlier. A rebuild doesn't bring them back: create new links with Branch or ChottuLink, and swap them in wherever you had shared the old ones.

Ready for an Immediate Upgrade?

Eager to migrate to Branch.io / Chottulink.com deeplinks right away? Let's do it. Request a rebuild via your bdk native project page, then publish the new builds as updates from your own store accounts.
