Hi,

Could someone please recommend how we can convert our Shopify Website to an App so that people can download from Google Play Store or Apple.

Thanks

To convert your Shopify website into an app that users can download from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store, you can follow these steps:

1. Use Shopify App Builders

There are several third-party platforms that specialize in converting Shopify stores into mobile apps:

  • Shopify’s Appify: Direct integration with Shopify.
  • Plobal Apps: Offers customization and features like push notifications.
  • Tapcart: Focused on creating branded apps.

These platforms allow you to turn your website into a fully functional app with minimal coding.

2. Use a Custom Development Approach

Hire a developer or agency to create a custom app for your Shopify store. Steps include:

  • API Integration: Use Shopify’s APIs to fetch data (products, orders, etc.).
  • Design and Develop: Create the front-end and back-end for the app.
  • Test and Deploy: Test the app thoroughly before submitting it to the Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

3. Features to Include in the App- Product Catalog: Showcase products in an easy-to-navigate format.

  • Cart and Checkout: Secure and seamless shopping experience.
  • Push Notifications: Inform customers about offers and updates.
  • Account Management: Allow customers to log in and manage their orders.

4. Publishing to Stores- Google Play Store: Requires a Google Developer account ($25 one-time fee).

  • Apple App Store: Requires an Apple Developer account ($99/year subscription).
  • Follow their respective guidelines for submission and approval.

If you are a good developer, you can do it yourself, but if not, you will need to hire someone for this task.
If you liked my suggestion, let me know.

Hi dear,

You can use the Webvify service to convert your store into a mobile app.

It provides end-to-end support, from developing the app to publishing it on Google Play and the App Store. Furthermore, it requires no subscription — just a one-time payment, and you pay only after your app is released on the stores.

Give it a try!
