Many sites wants you to download their app when you visit their webpage via mobile safari. Is this a safari browser feature? Or is this something I need to code.

How can I do it? What exactly this feature is called?

This feature is called Smart App Banner. It requires you to set a specific meta-tag on your website to link it to your App Store app, like so:

<meta name="apple-itunes-app" content="app-id=myAppStoreID, affiliate-data=myAffiliateData, app-argument=myURL">

You can find out more in the documentation.
