Is shopifytoapp.com a legit mobile app builder?

[helpplus]

Dear all,

Has anyone or have friends tried on shopifytoapp.com?

I felt something fishy on the ads but not sure if this is a legit business since they're only charging one off in comparison to other Shopify Mobile App builder.

As for Shopify App Builder - I've used Plobal Apps before and it's expensive and support were so-so. Functionality were limited - but that was 4 years ago.

Not sure any other better recommendation?

Thanks.

Hi, @helpplus!

Julie here from Shopify Support.

It's great to hear that you're wanting to build a mobile app for your business. I'm glad to see that you're doing some research into mobile app builders and have even taken advantage of some options in the Shopify App Store!

If you're looking to hire someone to build one for you, I suggest contacting a Shopify Expert. While I can't speak for any external developers, Shopify Experts are trusted, third-party agencies and freelancers who offer services for Shopify merchants, like marketing, development, store setup, branding, and more. There are also plenty of Shopify Experts who offer app development services.

If you haven't explored the Shopify Experts Marketplace before, then our guides on hiring help should be useful! There, you'll get some tips on how to find the right Experts and reach out to them with a job proposal. 

That being said, I'm curious to hear some recommendations from the rest of the Shopify Community. I'd also love to learn more about your app idea. What kind of features are you wanting to have in your mobile app?

Going around with this outfit at the moment. The app they provided us requests access to camera and audio recording. Repeated requests with their support give me only a single "add a privacy policy" response so the Android store will accept it, but they refuse to say why that access is needed.

Very shady stuff. Save your money.

Shopify moderator: if you can please provide how I might report them, I'd appreciate it.

I have ordered ( shopifytoapp.com ) for both android and IOS apps along with source code. in response as they promised they send me a spying app which google plays tore refused to publish. after that no response from them even after many reminders at email. its not only fishy , it looks fraudulent.

Thank you for saving my money. I was almost decided to pay for the Andorid App and then realized something is not right and searched in google which took me to this page..
