How long does it take for you to submit my app?

From the moment you sign up and provide the information we need to build your app to sending you a version you can test, we take typically 5-10 business days.

However, the complete process to get your app live typically takes around a month. This timeline accounts for more than just the technical build. It includes important steps like making design adjustments, preparing app store graphics, and thoroughly testing the app to ensure it’s ready for launch.

Your involvement in the process is crucial. You’ll need to review and approve your app, sign up for necessary accounts, and provide feedback on test builds.

Once the app is submitted, the approval process from Apple and Google can take anywhere from 7-10 days, depending on feedback and any changes requested by the app store QA teams.

It’s a good idea to prepare for your app’s launch with marketing activities and materials, but we strongly recommend not scheduling anything to go live until the app is officially approved by Apple and Google.

‍

Do you guarantee my app will be approved?

We cannot guarantee that your app will be approved, but we have a strong track record of getting apps approved across both Apple and Google’s app stores. While it may take multiple submissions, we are confident in our ability to eventually get your app approved.

If your app is rejected and after multiple attempts cannot be approved due to a technical issue specific to the MobiLoud platform (i.e. factors we control), we will refund any subscription fees (monthly or annual) paid, excluding the setup fees, which are always non-refundable. Please note, this refund policy does not apply if your app is rejected due to issues related to your website’s functionality, design, business model, or if your app does not meet Apple or Google’s store guidelines. For example, certain business activities or app types may not be allowed on the platforms, and these factors fall outside of our responsibility.

‍

Why do I have to pay a recurring fee?

You pay a recurring monthly or annual fee because MobiLoud is more than just a one-time service.

The fee covers the ongoing license for our platform and ensures continuous support from our team.

We keep your app updated, optimized, and ready to perform at its best, while also handling all technical aspects like updates, app changes, and ensuring compliance with app store requirements.

It's not just about app updates when there's a new iOS or Android version. This ongoing element is critical for maintaining a high-quality app that adapts as your business grows and your website changes.

Our team also helps you with app marketing, user engagement strategies, and maximizing the impact of push notifications to keep your users engaged and generate incremental revenue.

‍

Why is there a setup fee? What services do I get?

The setup fee covers all the hands-on services our team provides to ensure your app is polished and ready for launch. This includes optimizing your website and app to work seamlessly together and feel like a native app.

We make design improvements, add functionality from third-party apps or plugins, and handle any graphic design needs to ensure your app looks great.

Our team also conducts multiple rounds of testing to guarantee your app works as intended, bug-free.

We take care of setting up your app store pages, preparing screenshots, and managing the technical aspects of submitting your app to Apple and Google.

We’ll also guide you through the process, making adjustments based on your feedback.

Beyond the launch, we help you build an effective promotion strategy to make your app known to customers.

We guide you on how to use push notifications to drive engagement and increase revenue, offering ongoing support through strategy calls and materials to ensure your app’s long-term success.

‍

Can I cancel anytime? If I stop paying does my app get taken off the App Store and Google Play?

Yes, if you're not on a contract, you can cancel anytime with a 30-day cancellation notice.

At the end of your paid subscription period, you will close your account, delete the app, and ensure the app is removed from the App Store and Google Play, or replaced by one from another vendor.

We don't offer partial refunds. Once fees are paid, they will cover the full period without exceptions.

What are active users? Why do I pay more when my app gets more users?

Active users are the number of people who download and use your app within a 30-day period. You can track this easily using tools like Google Firebase or Google Analytics.

We charge based on active users for two key reasons. First, it ensures our business model is aligned with your success. As your app grows, our pricing scales with it, meaning we're invested in helping you increase engagement and revenue. We provide ongoing support to help you make the most of tools like push notifications and work with you on strategies to grow your app’s impact.

Second, more active users create higher demands on our systems and support. As your app becomes more popular, it requires additional resources, technical assistance, and system capacity. By charging proportionally, we can ensure that we’re able to maintain a high level of service and support as your app scales, even if you reach millions of users.

Why do I have to start paying monthly fees right from the beginning?

Fees start from sign-up because you get immediate access to our platform and team.

The fees cover the costs of building, testing, and launching your app, ensuring a smooth process.

This is necessary regardless of whether the app is approved or rejected by the app store, as those factors are beyond our control.

We will continue working with you until your app is approved, and we have a 100% success rate in getting apps approved.

Do we need to register for Apple and Google Developer accounts?

Yes, you need to register as a business for both Apple and Google developer accounts. This is so you're fully in control of your mobile app and you own the relationship with both Google and Apple.

To register, your business will need a D-U-N-S Number. This is a unique nine-digit identifier assigned to businesses by Dun & Bradstreet, used worldwide to verify a company’s legal status and identity. Both Apple and Google use this number to ensure that your business is legitimate.

Once you have the D-U-N-S Number, you can proceed with registering for both the Apple Developer Program, which costs $99 USD per year, and the Google Play Developer Program, which has a one-time registration fee of $25.

We encourage you to initiate the registration process with Apple and Google right after signing up with us, to avoid any hold-ups later. By the time we have completed work on your app, your accounts should be ready to go.

Note we don't support individual or personal accounts.

‍

Do I need to sign a contract with MobiLoud?

No, you don’t need to sign a contract to work with MobiLoud.

You can start by selecting the right plan for your business, and we will bill you on a monthly basis. It’s a simple, flexible process. If you prefer the stability and potential cost savings of a contract, feel free to contact us to explore that option.

Our team is available to discuss which approach makes the most sense for your needs.

‍

How hard is it to build and manage an app with MobiLoud?

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.

‍

How can I make sure my customers download and use the app?

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:

Adding app download prompts in multiple places on your website and at different points of engagement with your customer.
Offering a welcome discount for new app users (e.g. a discount to encourage downloads).
Using push notifications to keep customers engaged and bring them back to the app with exclusive offers.

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.

I have an existing app, how easy is it to replace it with MobiLoud?

Switching from an existing app to MobiLoud is very easy. We ensure a smooth transition with minimal disruption to your business and no impact on your app users.

The new app is delivered as an update to your existing app, so your customers won’t have to download anything new. They will simply receive the updated app when it goes live, ensuring no interruptions in their experience.

To make this transition even easier, we offer a special deal for businesses switching from competitors. We waive all setup fees and provide a discount equivalent to what you're paying them, so you're not paying double during the transition, if there's any overlap.

Most customers save 20% to 50% by migrating over to MobiLoud from their existing vendor.

Our team handles the technical aspects of the switch, including building and submitting the new app to the App Store and Google Play. You can expect a high level of hands-on service and support throughout the process, for a hassle-free migration. Everything is done for you by your team, and it's just a matter of weeks to get your new app live.

By switching, you’ll benefit from a platform designed to save you time and money while offering a more powerful, flexible mobile app solution.

‍

Is MobiLoud a no-code app builder?

MobiLoud is more than a no-code app builder, it’s a fully managed service that converts your existing website into a mobile app. The process starts by an onboarding call with your customer success manager, then our team configures the app to mirror your website’s content, design, and functionality. This setup requires no coding or work on your end, as we handle everything for you.

As part of this initial set up, we apply small optimizations to improve the app’s user experience, making adjustments like removing elements that don’t work well on mobile, and adding native app features like navigation bars. You’ll be able to review and manage your app through the MobiLoud dashboard, where you can push updates to app pages, customize settings, and view analytics.

If you want to further customize the app experience, your developers can use conditional code to detect app users and deliver a different experience from what’s available on the web. This flexibility allows you to create app-only features, pages, or unique designs.

Our service handles the end-to-end process, from setup to app store submission, so you can launch your app quickly and cost-effectively, with the confidence that it will be approved by both Apple and Google.

‍

What changes can MobiLoud make to my website when building a mobile app?

MobiLoud is a software solution and a service to turn your website into a mobile app that leverages your existing mobile site and its functionality and design. We build your mobile app by combining your website with our native elements for navigation, push notifications, and other app-specific functionality.

We don't offer custom development services, but your web development team can make any sort of change and build any sort of experience in your mobile app by simply building it on the web and using a few lines of code to identify the app and create a specific app-only experience.

As part of our service, our team implements small tweaks to your website for a better experience when it's loaded within your app. This includes removing site footers, widgets or pop-ups, or elements that don’t offer a good mobile experience or aren’t allowed in mobile apps. We handle these changes using our experience from publishing over 2,000 apps to ensure a smoother in-app experience and get your app approved on both Apple and Google stores.

After your app is live, we’re also happy to make similar small changes based on your feedback and requests. However, we don’t offer custom web or app development or extensive modifications of your site's design, beyond what's described above.

Our platform, though, is highly flexible, and there's no limitation to what you can achieve with just web development. You can build almost any app functionality, provided that you can find a solution to build that experience on the web.

We provide documentation to help your web development team or agency to implement app-only features, pages, or unique app experiences.

‍

How does MobiLoud calculate fees based on active user numbers?

MobiLoud calculates fees based on the number of 30-day active users, as reported in Google Analytics or Firebase. A 30-day active user is defined as a unique device that has opened the app at least once during that period.

Each plan includes a specific number of active users, with additional charges when you exceed the limit:

• Startup Plan - Up to 1,000 active users, with an additional $30 per month for each extra 1,000 users.

• Growth Plan - Up to 5,000 active users, with an additional $40 per month for each extra 1,000 users.

• Corporate Plan - Up to 10,000 active users, with an additional $50 per month for each extra 1,000 users.

We update your plan every 90 days, based on the average number of active users over the previous 90 days. Temporary peaks in user levels due to seasonality or launches won’t impact your subscription.

If you’d like more predictability and potential savings, consider switching to an annual contract. Feel free to reach out to us to discuss this option.

‍

How does the 30-day free trial work?

MobiLoud offers a risk-free way to get your mobile app built and verified before making any payment. Our 30-day trial period is designed to give you enough time to see your fully functioning app and decide if it meets your needs. During this time, our team works to build your app, submit it to the stores, and get it ready for release to your users.

We handle all technical aspects while you verify that everything works exactly as you want. The trial includes full app development, store submissions, and comprehensive support - essentially everything needed to get your app approved and ready for release.

‍

When do I need to pay?

Our trial is structured around two key milestones in your app's journey to launch.

The first is when you're satisfied with your approved app and decide to release it to users - at this point, payment becomes due even if it's before the 30 days.

The second is at the 30-day mark if you want to continue using our service, regardless of whether you're ready to release. At this point, you will have already seen the app, so you can make a decision.

This structure ensures you have time to verify everything works perfectly while maintaining project momentum. If payment becomes due, you'll be charged both the setup fee for your chosen plan and your first subscription period (monthly or annual).

‍

What if I'm not satisfied with the app?

During the 30-day trial period, you have full freedom to evaluate the app we build for you and decide if it meets your needs. If at any point during the trial you're not happy with how the app works or decide it's not the right solution for you, you can cancel without any charges or further commitment.

‍

What's included in the trial?

The trial gives you access to our complete app development service. Our team handles everything needed to transform your website into a fully-featured mobile app. This includes the technical development work, configuring push notifications, handling store submissions, and providing launch guidance.

You get full access to all features of your chosen MobiLoud plan, including our technical support team who will guide you through the entire process. The goal is to give you a complete picture of how your app will work and perform before you make any financial commitment.

‍

Can you submit my app to the stores during the trial?

Yes! Store submission is a key part of our trial period because we want you to see your app fully approved and ready for release before making your decision. We handle the entire submission process to both Apple's App Store and Google Play while you're still in the trial period.

This means you can get your app through the review process, see it approved, and test the final store version before deciding to release it to your users. While store approval doesn't guarantee your app will be accepted (as this depends on meeting store guidelines), our experience helps ensure your app is properly prepared for submission.

‍

What do you need from me to succeed?

While we handle the technical aspects of building your app, your involvement is crucial for a successful and timely launch.

The 30-day timeline to launch is achievable when we work together effectively.

We need your team to complete onboarding quickly, provide access to necessary accounts (Apple Developer, Google Play, OneSignal, Google Analytics), and be available for important decisions.

For ecommerce apps, we'll need your help testing the complete purchase flow since this often involves your specific payment systems and backend processes.

Quick feedback on app builds helps us maintain momentum, and having decision makers available ensures we can move forward efficiently at each stage.

‍

What are the payment terms?

Our payment structure is designed to be straightforward and transparent.

When payment becomes due - either when you decide to release your app or at the 30-day mark if continuing - you'll be charged both the setup fee for your chosen plan and your first subscription period (monthly or annual).

The setup fee covers the intensive work of configuring your app and getting it through store approval, while the subscription ensures ongoing support and maintenance.

These fees are clearly outlined in your plan selection and only apply when you're ready to move forward with your app.

Because we provide a free trial that lets you see our team at work and get a preview of the final app that will go live on the stores, all payments are final, with no options for refunds.

‍

Can I extend the trial period?

The 30-day trial period is fixed to help maintain project momentum and ensure efficient app delivery. This helps both teams stay focused on the goal of getting your app ready for launch.

While app store approval times and development needs vary, we've found that 30 days provides sufficient time to build, verify, and make an informed decision about your app.

Ideally, we can get the app approved and released within this time frame. But often times that is not possible.

The goal of the trial is to give you the opportunity to fully test working with our team and seeing your app in a working, final version. This will definitely be possible and allow you to get a complete picture of how our service works, making a final purchase decision about it.

If you need more time after the trial to finalize your app, you can continue development as a paying customer, ensuring you have the support needed to perfect your app.

‍

What's the ideal timeline?

Based on our experience launching hundreds of successful apps, we've developed an optimal timeline that makes the most of your 30-day trial. The first few days focus on onboarding and setup, followed by 1-2 weeks of intensive development. Week 3 typically involves testing and refinements, leading to store submission. The final week allows for store review and your final verification.

This timeline ensures you can see your completed app and make an informed decision within the trial period. While every project is unique, this structure has proven successful for many of our clients.

‍

Can I get a refund if I change my mind after paying?

We don't offer refunds once payment is made (either at release decision or at 30 days). This policy exists because substantial work goes into getting your app built and approved. That's precisely why we offer the trial period - it gives you time to thoroughly evaluate the app before making any financial commitment.

This is also why we encourage comprehensive testing during the trial period and are happy to address any concerns before you make your decision to proceed.
