Add an App Clip to an Expo App

When to Use

Use this skill when you need add an iOS App Clip target to an Expo app. Use when the user mentions App Clip, AASA, apple-app-site-association, appclips, smart app banner, or wants to ship a lightweight iOS Clip invoked from a URL alongside their parent app.

Adds an iOS App Clip target to an Expo project. The Clip lives in targets/clip/, ships alongside the parent app, and is invoked from a URL on the app's domain via an Apple App Site Association (AASA) file.

The parent app's bundle ID becomes com.<username>.<app-name> and the Clip's is automatically derived as <parent>.clip (e.g. com.bacon.may20.clip).

1. Set bundleIdentifier and appleTeamId

bun create target warns if these are missing. Add to app.json:

{
  "expo": {
    "ios": {
      "bundleIdentifier": "com.<username>.<app-name>",
      "appleTeamId": "XX57RJ5UTD"
    }
  }
}

2. Add the App Clip target

bun create target clip

This installs @bacons/apple-targets, adds it to the plugins array in app.json, and writes:

• targets/clip/expo-target.config.js — the target's config plugin
• targets/clip/Info.plist — Clip Info.plist
• targets/clip/AppDelegate.swift, Assets.xcassets, etc.

Pick a good icon or reuse the existing one defined in the app — check it with `bu
