MobiLoud: A Vajro Alternative with More Upside and Lower Lift

While Vajro is a solid way to build a mobile app, it comes with limitations. You'll struggle to carry over all the best parts of your website to your mobile app, and the overhead will be heavier than you expect. MobiLoud is a more straightforward alternative, which saves you time and delivers much higher upside.

Vajro is good for...

Early-stage brands will like Vajro for its ease of use, pre-built templates, and lower entry-level pricing.

It's well-regarded in the Shopify ecosystem, and comes with a user-friendly drag-and-drop editor, and 70+ integrations with Shopify apps and other third-party tools.

For most stores, Vajro is a much better option than spending hundreds of thousands on native development. And it offers a more affordable path to launching an app than many other Shopify app builders.

However, like all these no-code tools, Vajro is limited. It's template-based, forcing you to rebuild your web experience within the constraints of their platform.

There's no guarantee that all your website features will work in the app, and you'll end up managing two separate platforms, which will be a drain on your workflow.

Why MobiLoud is different

MobiLoud fully converts your website into a mobile app.

Unlike Vajro and similar app builders, there's no need to rebuild anything.

Your app is your website, with all the crucial features you rely on to drive conversions.

There are no limits - rather than working within strict templates, with MobiLoud, anything you can do on your website, you can do in the app as well.

MobiLoud lets you launch the perfect app for your Shopify store, with none of the constraints of traditional app builders.

You'll spend less time building and managing your app, while coming away with an end result that looks and feels like a custom, million-dollar app.

Full-Site Conversion vs DIY Builder

  • MobiLoud: A full-service solution. We handle app development, submission, updates, and maintenance for you.

No API Limitations

Seamless Integration & Customization

  • Vajro: Limited by the platform’s available integrations and design constraints.
  • MobiLoud: Works with any tech stack or platform. If you customize your Shopify store, your app updates automatically.

How does the price compare between MobiLoud and Vajro?
FAQ open/close button.

On lower plans, Vajro is cheaper than MobiLoud. MobiLoud also comes with a one-time setup fee (Vajro does not), which covers the work our team does to build and publish your mobile apps.

Once you get onto higher subscription levels, the monthly pricing works out largely the same, while MobiLoud requires less effort and lower labor costs to manage.

How long does it take?
FAQ open/close button.

Building an app with MobiLoud takes less than 30 days.

This includes the time for our team to configure and build your apps, test, make any necessary changes, and publish your app to the App Stores.

It's difficult to say how long it will take to build an app with Vajro. You could go live in a matter of days, or it could take a lot longer to iterate and come away with the ideal result.

Do I need a developer to use MobiLoud?
FAQ open/close button.

Not at all. We provide a fully done-for-you service, taking care of every step of the process for you.

In fact, you barely need to do anything at all - let alone coding.

Once your app is live, you’ll have full control over its functionality and experience.

Any changes to your website will automatically sync with your app, saving you time and effort.

With MobiLoud, you can create a completely custom app experience that reflects your brand and meets your business needs, all without writing a single line of code.

Does MobiLoud integrate with Shopify?
FAQ open/close button.

MobiLoud works seamlessly with web platforms and technologies - including Shopify.

Unlike Vajro and other mobile app builders, we don't use the Shopify API to pull product data into your app. Instead, we integrate your entire website within the app.

This means you're not limited by the constraints of the Shopify API. Any customizations, tweaks, or unique features on your website will work in the app from day one.

You're also not tied to Shopify. You can move to another website platform, or build out custom elements on your website, and your app will continue to work just fine.

Can I move my existing app to MobiLoud?
FAQ open/close button.

Yes!

It's easy to migrate your app from any other app builder to MobiLoud.

Your users won't face any disruptions. The new app will be published as an update on the App Store and Google Play, so they won't have to re-download.
