User Engagement

Mobile apps are easy to use. Give one tap and all content is at your fingertips & you dont need to to do a login or logout every time.

Mobile Apps Help Build Brand Loyalty

Nothing puts your brand and products in front and center like a mobile app that the customer sees every time they use their phone.

Powerful Analytics

Every business owner wants to understand his/her customers so that he can sell better. A big plus about having a mobile app is the analytics that comes with it. Use this analytics to create more engaging content and define your strategy to reach out to more users.

Mobile apps increase the interaction between you and your customer

Mobile apps bring the customer closer to you. You can keep customers notified of new updates regarding their order, new promotional offers and other events they’ll be interested in.

Go where the users are

World is moving from desktop to mobile-first to mobile-only era. Having a website only is not enough as they cannot be optimized completely for mobile experiences. Mobile apps provide more engagement from users as they are permanently installed on their mobile phones.

Use of device features

Users can use many device features. E.g. a user can directly call you or email you from mobile app.

Mobile Apps Allow Push Notifications

When you have an app, you can send out powerful and targeted push notifications. You can notify them about your new arrivals, daily deals, flash sales, stock clearance and lots more. Push Notifications are best way to reach out to customers. Emails are no longer good as most of them land up in Spam folder.

Great User Experience

Ease of use on native apps is far better than a mobile friendly website. Some of the great features are possible only on native apps.

Customer Loyalty

A loyal customer always look for a mobile app so that she does not miss any important update from your store. Other side of the coin is that a user tends to become the loyal user when she installs your app.

Branding

Take your brand to new heights by launching a mobile app for your business. There are only few online businesses which have launched their own mobile app. This is a good differentiator and it shows that you are serious about your business and about customer experience.

Mobile Apps Encourage Social Sharing & make your Store viral

Want customers to do advertising for you by sharing your product and services on WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and other social media sites? Mobile app has inbuilt sharing capability. This will make your business viral.

But my website is mobile friendly, Why do I need a mobile app?

There are some fundamental differences between two:

• Website is for attracting new customers while app is for creating loyal customers
• On website you need to open the browser, enter the website URL while app is just a tap away.
• On website the customer comes, completes the activity and exits while on app the communication is two-way and ongoing.
• Websites are more responsive to search queries but apps provides engagement, loyalty, and ease of use. App "lives" on user's device.
• The most successful marketers use their mobile website to attract new customers and convince them to download the app, creating an opportunity for profitable & ongoing relationship.

Why and how you sell apps at such low prices?

App agency market is fragmented & highly inefficient; there are no set standards for quality, rates or delivery timelines. We want to change that. We have built a proprietary app development engine which helps us in creating high quality native mobile apps by using less manpower resources and saving on costs. Please note that while you retain all rights to your content and data, we retain all rights to the code.

Do you share the source code?

No, we sell these apps as products and do not share the source code. However we take care of support and maintenance of the product. We have full copyright on the code.

What you do in Support and Maintenance?

All OS upgrades.

Feature upgrade within a plan

Email and Call Support for any issue or simple requests

Bug fixing

What if I want to cancel my order?

Hey, our products are addictive and we know that you will never do that :-) but still if you want to cancel, we provide a 7 days money back guarantee. We will not bug you with counter offers or with irritating questions.

What about Apple App Store/Google Play Store Listing?

We will list your apps on our accounts however you can buy your own account and we help you upload it there.

Please note that sometime Google and Apple do not approve a third party app. In that case you will need to buy these accounts. Google charges a one time fee of $25 USD and Apple charges an yearly fee of $99 USD.

Are you providing native apps or web view apps?

We believe in good UI and a great mobile experience. These things are difficult to achieve on web view based apps. We provide pure native mobile apps for all our products. In case if there is a hybrid app, it will be mentioned on product page.

Will you change the app as per my requirements?

We provide basic customizations like Color changes, Name, logo and branding etc. If you need a new feature on top of an existing app template then we would take it as a separate project. Please contact sales team for such requirements.

What level of customization can you do?

We can do all sorts of customization but we do not add any new feature. However if we are adding a new feature in future, your app will get an upgrade automatically within your plan.
