Yes, with MobiLoud, you can build high-quality iOS and Android apps from virtually any website, regardless of the CMS or tech stack you use.
Whether your site is built on WordPress, Shopify, Salesforce, React, or a custom platform, if your website functions well as a web app and is mobile-optimized, we can convert it into a native mobile app.
Our platform allows you to reuse everything you've already built on the web, so there's no need to start from scratch.
The mobile app will pull directly from your website, ensuring that all the functionality, design, and features remain intact and in sync across both web and mobile platforms.
This allows you to maintain a single code base for both your website and mobile app, saving you time and resources.
Yes, all the features and functionality your web app or website currently has can be recreated within your iOS and Android apps using MobiLoud.
Our platform takes everything from your web app (whether it's content, functionality, or design) and translates it seamlessly into a mobile app experience.
This includes all custom features, web-based plugins, vendors, and integrations (whether you're using platforms like WordPress, Shopify, or something custom-built).
You don’t have to rebuild anything from scratch. We bring everything over into your app, allowing you to maintain a single code base and website while expanding your reach to mobile app users.
Any updates or changes you make to your site are automatically reflected in the app, ensuring that the app stays in sync with your web platform.
The MobiLoud platform itself is fully native and built from scratch in Swift, Java and Kotlin for the best user experience and performance. MobiLoud apps are not strictly native, but rather your existing site or web app running inside a native container that runs in every way like a native app, adds native navigation and features like push notifications. This allows you to recreate your web experience exactly, while adding the key features you need to improve user experience on mobile devices.
Ultimately, you could build a native app from scratch (very very expensive, complex – only for well funded companies where the app is a key part of the value prop), or use a template based solution (could be good but by definition it will be limiting), or use our approach, which gives you the benefits of a native app with the flexibility of the web.
A hybrid approach lets you have a mobile app with all the features of your website, in a very short time and very affordably, with the added benefit of not having to worry about constantly catching up with your site's development to add new features (i.e. if you add or change anything on the site, it changes in the app). You'll maintain a single code-base, your website's, for both site and app.
It's a huge saving in both time and money terms, and it gives you incredible flexibility compared to a situation where you have a web app or website and a native app alongside it.
We offer a complete configuration dashboard that gives you full control of your app once it’s live. However, to ensure the app is built optimally and approved quickly by Apple and Google, our team handles the initial configuration. With our experience, we can set up your app in the most efficient and effective way possible.
After the app is live, you or your technical team can access the dashboard to manage the app's configuration, including pages, menus, and push notifications. If you prefer, our team is always available to make any adjustments on your behalf, especially if you’re not technical. We can handle everything for you as needed.
Our process starts with a consultation to understand your vision and app requirements. After sign-up, we schedule an onboarding call to discuss customization options and guide you through completing the necessary forms.
Once your preferences are clear, we develop your app, prepare custom graphics, and share a preview for your feedback. Together, we test the app, making sure everything works as expected.
After testing, we submit your app to the Apple and Google stores, monitor the approval process, and keep you updated until the app is live. Once your app is launched, we provide marketing advice and ready-to-use assets to help you promote it effectively. We also conduct strategy sessions around push notifications to ensure you're leveraging this powerful channel to maximize user engagement.
Throughout the entire process, we ensure you have support and input at every key step, from development to post-launch growth.
Yes, you can configure the notifications to go out automatically as a response to specific events, including new content getting published. You can also send notifications manually whenever you wish.
Our WordPress plugins and Shopify apps provide this functionality for you, so there's nothing for your team to build.
If your site doesn't run on WordPress or Shopify, but rather uses any popular web stack, you'll be able to easily connect to Onesignal's REST API to trigger notifications for any event.
No, you can send as many as you like! You can integrate notifications with your website (we do that for you with our plugin if you're on WordPress or Shopify) to send them automatically or send them manually. We rely on Onesignal to send notifications and you'll have full control of your own Onesignal account. They have excellent documentation if you want to integrate their API in your web application.
Building and managing an app with MobiLoud is incredibly simple.
The process requires minimal time and effort on your part. You’ll only need to spend around 5-10 hours on the initial setup. This includes providing essential assets like logos and images, registering your Apple and Google accounts and answering a few questions to help us understand your needs.
From there, we take care of everything. Our team handles building the app, optimizing it for iOS and Android, and submitting it to the App Store and Google Play. You don’t need to worry about the technical steps.
Once the app is live, managing it is even easier. Your app is linked directly to your website. Any updates you make to the site (whether it's content, design, or functionality) automatically sync to the app.
There’s no need to update the app separately. You can focus on maintaining your website, and the app will stay up-to-date automatically.
With MobiLoud, you get the benefits of a native app with minimal ongoing effort.
We work closely with you from the start to guide you through promoting your app and ensuring it’s a success.
Our team helps implement site changes that can drive downloads, such as adding smart app banners and buttons to key areas of your website.
We'll also provide you with a full strategy to promote your app effectively to your existing audience.
This includes tactics like:
Once these are executed, we see our customers adding thousands of app users every single month and eventually generating 15-25% of their revenue from their mobile apps.
Yes, your app updates automatically whenever changes are made to your website. There’s no need to rebuild or manually update the app. This seamless integration is a huge advantage, ensuring your app is always in sync with your website without any extra effort.
Because your site and app share the same codebase, you avoid the development backlog typically required for apps to catch up with site changes. This allows you to build everything on the web (apps, widgets, vendor tools, or custom features) and have them work seamlessly within the app. It also means you can build quickly and maintain feature parity between your site and app, something nearly impossible with custom app development or traditional app builders.
This approach eliminates duplication of work, keeps your app users engaged with the latest updates, and provides a fast, cost-effective way to maintain your app. While updates happen automatically, we recommend testing the app after significant changes to ensure everything looks and functions as expected. With MobiLoud, your app evolves alongside your website, giving you the flexibility and efficiency you need.
