Hi! Anyone has an idea how to make google crawl the google store/play link? I will show it on the screenshot, its under "visit my website"
It worked for some of our competitors, so I am wondering is there any way to do it? Its been live since July 1st.
I am checking in Ahfefs/LRT/Moz and it is not there.

As long as the app page is indexed in google, you don't have to worry about Moz, ahrefs or any similar tools,
It has been crawled and the link is counted, the rest depends on Google how would it teat such a link

Yes, but its impossible to check if the google play page is indexed, or is there a way I don't know about?

You check just like any other page. Get the url of the google play page, then search google for either
site:url or cache:url

eg
Code:
site:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tv.twitch.android.app
cache:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tv.twitch.android.app

just copy some unique content in the page and quote it in the SERPs (exact match search), this should give you the result :)

Doesn't work, maybe the page isn't indexed? Its been live for over a months and its a free app on google play, it should get indexed pretty fast logically.

Well, if exact match search for some of its content does return no results, then it's not indexed,
Try with a couple of social shares & give it a couple of days

Have you check your server logs? If Googlebot visited that page and didn't index it, then link is irrelevant to be shown in search index. Also, you are asking a question and want answer to another. Googlebot will crawl that link but depends if it will index it or not.
