Webflow is growing fast as one of the world's most popular content management systems.
It's rising particularly for eCommerce stores, with nearly 100,000 online stores worldwide powered by Webflow.
All these stores should have their own mobile app. But that raises the question... how to build a mobile app with Webflow?
Luckily, there's an easy way to convert your Webflow website into a mobile app, without a huge investment or a ton of development work.
So if you're interested in turning your successful Webflow site into iOS and Android apps, keep reading and learn how to do it.
Can You Create Mobile Apps with Webflow?
Webflow is great for building unique, responsive web experiences in a short time.
But, for now, it's only for the web. You're not able to use their intuitive platform to create mobile apps.
And if you've got a successful website running on Webflow, it's not as easy as it would seem to just turn your website into a mobile app.
If you go with a custom job, you'll need to build the framework of your mobile apps from scratch, then create a custom API to share data between your mobile apps and Webflow site.
This is all going to cost a lot - and it's unsure whether it will be worth it.
You're looking at a six figure+ cost, which will take a long time to pay off.
If you're running an eCommerce store on Webflow, it absolutely makes sense to launch an app, as your own branded app could generate tens of thousands in new revenue per month for your store.
But custom-building mobile apps will be a massive project, a lot of risk, and even if things go well, it will be a while before you see a positive ROI.
However, if you use a service specially designed for turning a website into an app, you could create a mobile app with Webflow much quicker, much cheaper, and with exponentially less risk.

Why Convert Your Webflow Web App into a Mobile App?
Is it really worth the hassle to build a mobile app for your Webflow site?
After all, your website works great on mobile already. It's fast, responsive, and people can access it through mobile browsers.
But there is still a lot of benefit to turning your Webflow site into a proper mobile app.
First, there is basically no hassle.
MobiLoud makes it easy. There's nothing for you to do, and we'll ship a native-feeling app that reuses your web code, and requires virtually no extra work to maintain.
Second, you can drive more revenue from your current users, increase retention, and gain a direct line to your customers by launching an app.
The mobile web's market share continues to grow, and with it, your share of potential app users.
Anyone who would visit your site more than once (your most valuable users) would almost certainly download your app, to make the experience easier.
And people in apps convert at a higher rate, spend more in each transaction, and are more likely to return than mobile web users.
Once you get people to download your apps, you can market to them with push notifications - a high-visibility channel that's basically free.
Most important, an app gives you ownership and a direct line to your audience, which is extremely valuable today with other acquisition channels becoming more expensive or less reliable.
So while your mobile site may work well, it's not going to compare to the benefits of having your own app.
