What do you mean by Web to App?


Web to the app is a new proprietary development process that turns your website content into an application. The Web-to-App process is software agnostic and can be deployed in iOS, Android, and Windows mobile formats. Web to App converts your site content into an interface that users will find familiar and simple, tailored for the target device. The Web to App process contains 3 distinct stages, each of which can be completed in parallel-



• Content Analysis - the first stage involves converting the content of your website into an application structure. By extracting all your site content into a database, your content can be filtered and converted into the appropriate application formats for each target mobile device. This includes mobile interface creation, navigation, and functionality, offline access, notifications, and location-based events.


• User Interface Design - automatically generated content is not always ideal for every user platform. During this stage, our team tailors the interface to every device. This involves understanding the styling conventions of app stores as well as using native features to make your app stand out from competitors.


• Programming/App Development – this stage is where the magic happens! Our talented mobile engineers program our solutions and integrate them into your existing website. We leverage the benefits of HTML5 and JavaScript to create a native interface that you can develop quickly and easily without writing any code.


• Deployment - at this stage, your app is ready to be distributed to users and placed on your site through the app store. In addition, we can integrate with multiple notification systems including SMS, Push Notification, Email, or Social Media via Open Twitter API or Facebook API integration.


Some examples of W2A projects include:

- Google offers its search engine as an app for iOS, Android, and Windows Phones.

- Spotify provides its music streaming service as both the mobile app for smartphones and the website with the desktop version (although this use may require a separate subscription). 

- Instagram is being rebranded into “Instagram Direct” which will put it directly on your iPhone or iPad application. Because of this change, they are going to eliminate hashtags from the new layout of Instagram Direct posts.

- Many news organizations have web-to-app versions of their articles on their website.

- Shutterfly is an example of a traditional company that has a website, mobile apps, and a desktop program. 

- NBC has taken over the Olympics for the last three years, providing you with a front-row seat to seeing just about anything that you could imagine. They have apps for iOS and Android that provide Olympic news and events at your fingertips.

- Google Maps was once an app available on Apple’s mobile devices but now it is only available through the Google Search Application. Yet they also offer specialized apps such as Google Earth which has many different uses ranging from searching for natural resources to planning out space travel.


Introduction for Web-to-App

In recent years, there has been an increase in the use of mobile technology as more and more people are using their smartphones for a variety of things. With this increase in mobile use, it is no surprise that many companies have decided to move beyond just developing mobile applications to instead creating web-to-app projects.



Web-to-App (W2A) services are projects that convert existing websites into smartphone applications. This conversion can be done by web developers or application developers and is usually either done by taking what is already available on a website and converting it or by doing a full redesign of a site until it meets the needs of both a website user and someone who uses it via smartphone.


How does web-to-app work?

Web-to-app works by taking the content and functionality of a website that already exists and converting it into an app for smartphones. The process usually takes about 6 months, which for a desktop-based application, is pretty quick but for a mobile application, it can take much longer. One reason for the length of time would be the amount of interaction between the person creating the app and the user or potentially multiple users. Often during this process, there will be several rounds of revisions to make sure that each feature is correct as well as making sure that all information has been transferred correctly from one platform to another.


One of the ways that W2A works is with a mobile interface or "app." Companies will first use an existing mobile interface (often called an SDK) to convert their websites into an app. This app is only available on mobile platforms such as phones and tablets. Apps can be built from scratch to allow for a more native, native-like experience but this option can often be very costly, taking about 6 months for completion. So instead companies may choose to use an existing mobile interface (such as the SDK) which greatly reduces the amount of work needed to get started and allows for some level of support during development if needed.



What is The Process of Website to Application?

The process of developing a website for an application involves several steps that need to be completed. The first step includes taking the website and breaking it down into smaller segments or pages for use in the app. Then these pages will have content added to them to make them more appropriate for being viewed on a mobile phone. After this, each page will be tested and updated until they meet the needs of both the user as well as anyone who may use the application on their mobile device. This testing can take place after every round of development is complete or it can be done at specific phases, such as just before release, just after release, etc.


How much does web-to-app cost?

It depends on the company and its size. Companies that want to take over a project can often share the cost with the other company when using W2A services. Many companies offer complete web-to-app services but there can be no guarantee as to how much it will cost. The cost will vary depending on if you are trying to redesign an app from scratch or if you work with an existing one, as well as how big the app is. It's also possible that some mobile devices may not even have apps for certain sites, so companies may try to add a mobile platform-specific app for their site when using W2A services.
