Overview: What Are MobiLoud and Appilix?

MobiLoud is a done-for-you service that transforms your existing website into native mobile apps, with your full tech stack and design preserved.

MobiLoud handles everything—from configuration and QA to App Store submission and post-launch optimization. The result is a native-like app that mirrors your site’s capabilities, with active support from a team of experts.

A few examples of mobile apps built with MobiLoud

Appilix is a no-code platform that allows you to convert your website into a mobile app in minutes.

It’s designed for speed, simplicity, and budget-friendliness. You handle setup, configuration, and publishing yourself using Appilix’s control panel and guides.

Key Differences

Let's take a look at the biggest points of difference between MobiLoud and Appilix.

1. Service Model: Managed vs DIY

MobiLoud provides a white-glove experience.

Our team builds, tests, and launches your app, handles app store submissions, and supports you post-launch with app store compliance, updates, and push strategies.

Appilix is entirely self-service. You configure your app through a wizard interface and follow tutorials to publish and maintain it. Support is responsive but limited to guidance.

2. Feature Coverage and Customization

MobiLoud supports:

  • Full feature parity with your site (e.g., ecommerce flows, logins, dynamic content)
  • Native navigation elements (tab bars, menus)
  • Deep linking, analytics, Klaviyo and OneSignal integration
  • Segmented and automated push notifications (e.g. cart recovery)
  • Source code access on higher tiers

Appilix supports:

  • Live content sync from your site
  • Firebase push notifications
  • AdMob integration for monetization
  • Native UI components (menus, floating buttons)
  • Limited custom JS/CSS injection for tweaks

MobiLoud offers more powerful engagement tools and support for app-specific features through native add-ons or custom code. Appilix provides a solid baseline but with tighter boundaries.

3. Push Notification Strategy

MobiLoud includes unlimited push notifications, plus hands-on setup of automated campaigns—especially for ecommerce. You can run cart abandonment flows, segment users, and integrate with tools like Klaviyo.

Appilix enables push via Firebase, but automation and targeting require manual setup or coding knowledge. It’s functional, but not optimized out of the box.

4. Pricing Structure

MobiLoud uses a subscription model with expert service baked in, starting at $299 per month, plus a one-time setup fee (starting at $850).

Appilix is a small yearly subscription (free for the first 30 days), or the option to pay-once, use forever:

  • Android Lifetime: $89
  • iOS Lifetime: $139
  • Annual Plans: $69–$79 per app/year

Appilix’s pricing is extremely attractive for hobbyists or small startups. MobiLoud is designed for serious businesses that want results and reliability at scale.

5. Support and Partnership

MobiLoud assigns a team to your app. You get strategic input on launch, growth, and optimization, plus direct help with design, testing, and submissions. Support scales from email to Slack access.

Appilix offers solid email support and tutorials. They guide you through issues but don’t build the app or fix platform-specific bugs for you. It's responsive but not proactive or strategic.

When to Choose MobiLoud

Choose MobiLoud if:

  • You want a full-service partner to handle everything
  • Your site has complex functionality that must work in-app
  • You care about push notification ROI and advanced automation
  • You want peace of mind with store submission and maintenance
  • You view your app as a legitimate revenue-driving channel

When to Choose Appilix

Choose Appilix if:

  • Your budget is very limited
  • You enjoy DIY tools and have some technical confidence
  • You’re testing the waters or building a short-term solution
  • You want a functional app fast, with no recurring costs

Real World Use Cases

Here are some of the most popular use cases for these tools.

Ecommerce

MobiLoud is built for serious ecommerce brands. Cart recovery flows, push segmentation, and expert app launch guidance drive measurable ROI.

Appilix is perhaps suitable for small shops getting started. You can send push deals and provide a mobile storefront but won’t get any marketing integrations.

Digital Publishing

MobiLoud is ideal for large content publishers needing a polished app with push alerts, monetization, and long-term app maintenance.

Appilix works well for bloggers or independent publishers. Push and AdMob support offer a low-cost path to mobile engagement.

SaaS and Web Apps

MobiLoud ensures complex functionality like logins, dashboards, and user data are preserved with native polish and app store compliance.

Appilix is a quick wrapper for mobile-friendly SaaS tools. Great for MVPs or internal use, but not suited for complex workflows or scaling.

Conclusion: Which Web to App Platform is Best For You?

Both MobiLoud and Appilix help you turn a website into an app—but they serve very different needs.

Go with MobiLoud if:

  • You want long-term growth, support, and strategic outcomes
  • You’re building a mission-critical business app
  • You value reliability, polish, and ongoing optimization

Go with Appilix if:

  • You’re on a tight budget
  • You want something simple and fast
  • You’re comfortable managing everything yourself

Bottom line: MobiLoud is the better choice for growth-focused brands ready to invest in mobile retention, engagement, and ROI. Appilix is best for hobbyists or very small businesses, who want an app that's essentially going to cost them nothing to build.
