Hulu Deep Link Generator — Open Hulu Links in the App
Paste any Hulu link — shows and movies — and get a link that opens the Hulu app instead of a logged-out browser. Free, no signup.
Why Hulu links open in the browser
Social apps like Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, X and LinkedIn open taps in their own in-app browser. That browser doesn't share the viewer's login, so they land on Hulu logged out — with no saved account, no follow button that works and no one-tap actions.
A plain https link never tells the phone to hand off to the Hulu app. A deep link does: it carries the app's URL scheme and package so the phone can open Hulu directly.

FAQ
How do I make a Hulu link open in the app?
Paste your Hulu link into the generator above to get iOS and Android app links. For click analytics and in-app-browser handling, turn it into a free vayda.link.
What is the Hulu URL scheme?
Hulu uses hulu://. Vayda builds links with the template hulu://{url_no_scheme}.
Why does my Hulu link open in Instagram's browser?
Instagram, TikTok and Facebook open taps in their own in-app browser, which doesn't share the viewer's Hulu login. On Android, a smart link can hand off to the Hulu app. On iPhone, Meta blocks automatic app hand-off for every link tool, so viewers need to tap ••• → Open in external browser.
What happens if the Hulu app isn't installed?
On Android the link falls back to the Hulu web page via browser_fallback_url. On iPhone the link opens the Hulu website or the App Store.
Is the Hulu deep link generator free?
Yes. Generating raw app links is free with no signup. Trackable smart links are free up to 2,000 clicks/month.
