How they work
With app builders like Shopney, you rebuild your store in their platform, giving you two separate storefronts to maintain. MobiLoud builds your app on your existing website instead: so everything from your site carries over, with both channels fully in sync.
The app builder model
Your app exists separately from your site
Good for
The trade-off
You maintain two storefronts, and only the apps Shopney supports make it into your app.
The MobiLoud model
Everything on your site, in your app
Good for
The trade-off
A higher upfront cost, less suitable for early-stage brands.
Everyday scenarios
Here’s a situational breakdown of how these two Shopify mobile app builders stack up for a few common scenarios.

The new design goes live on your site only. In the app, you adjust Shopney’s theme settings to match.
With MobiLoud
The new design goes live on your site and in your app at the same time.

With Shopney
Shopney says apps take about five days on average, from sign-up to the App Store, with a cost starting from $149.

Features
Shopney
Shopney works with Shopify and Shopify Plus stores only.
MobiLoud
MobiLoud works with any website: Shopify, Magento, BigCommerce, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, WooCommerce, and custom or headless builds.
What it means for youBoth are viable options for Shopify brands; if you’re not on Shopify, or you have a highly customized storefront, MobiLoud is the better choice.
Shopney
You design the app in Shopney’s drag-and-drop editor, from themes and design elements, and Shopney AI can draft your home screen.
MobiLoud
Your app starts from your website’s design, so there’s nothing to recreate. Your app gets native UI additions and tweaks to make the experience feel fully native. You build custom app-only pages and designs through your web platform.
What it means for youShopney makes it quick to design an app yourself. MobiLoud lets you carry over everything from your site, and maintain one design system for both website and app.
Shopney
The in-app checkout mirrors your Shopify checkout, with Shop Pay, Apple Pay, PayPal and Klarna.
MobiLoud
The app uses your site’s checkout, so your payment methods, checkout apps and customizations all work as they do on your site.
What it means for youOn a standard Shopify checkout, both turn out the same. MobiLoud is the choice if you have custom checkout features Shopney can’t recreate.
Shopney
Shopney lists 52 integrations, such as Klaviyo, Yotpo, Smile and Recharge.
MobiLoud
Every app and script on your site works in the app, including ones you built yourself.

MobiLoud
Push runs through OneSignal or Klaviyo, with abandoned cart, welcome and inactive user flows built in. We help you set it up and get the most out of it.
What it means for youShopney has push notifications built in and managed through their platform; MobiLoud connects with external services where you manage push as you would with email or SMS.
Shopney
Shopney AI can design your home screen, write push notifications on Platinum and up, and draft your store listing.
MobiLoud
The search, recommendations, AI chat and personalization on your site work in the app too.

What it means for youBoth use analytics tools for the full picture. MobiLoud puts your app data next to your web data.
Shopney
You build and run the app in Shopney’s dashboard, with onboarding and chat support. Higher plans add an expert or a success manager, and Shopney submits the app to the stores for you.
MobiLoud
We build the app, publish it and update it for every new iOS and Android version, and help you plan the launch and your push. Enterprise adds a success manager and a shared Slack or Teams channel.
What it means for youShopney helps you launch, then your team runs the app. With MobiLoud, you get a team invested in your success; while your web team’s work automatically carries over to the app.
Shopney

MobiLoud
Most apps go live in 6 to 8 weeks, including the store reviews. We build and test the app, and you review it along the way.
What it means for youIf all goes to plan, Shopney is much quicker to launch. MobiLoud takes a little longer, while still being a very reasonable time frame to launch a full-featured mobile app.
Shopney
Your app is published in your own Apple and Google developer accounts, with admin access for Shopney.
MobiLoud
Your app is published in your own Apple and Google developer accounts, so the listing, reviews and users are yours.

What the price covers
You pay for the build, the launch and our team. We design, publish and update the app, and help you grow it. There’s no share of your app sales.
Our pricing pageShopney starts at $149 a month, with no share of your sales and no setup fee. The plan you need depends on what your store runs: loyalty, subscriptions and Klaviyo all start on Platinum, at $599 a month.
Some extras are billed on top. In-app pop-up campaigns are paid for by impression, and design support and custom integrations sit on Enterprise, from $1,299 a month.
Then there’s your team’s time. With Shopney, someone on your team builds the app and keeps it in step with your website. With MobiLoud, changes carry over from your site, and our team handles the build, the updates and the store submissions.
If you want to launch fast on a small budget and your store runs on a few popular apps, Shopney is a strong choice. But keep the total cost of your app in mind.
If someone on your team spends ten hours per week keeping the app up to date, the overall cost may end up being a lot closer than you think.
