Website-to-App Planning & Conversion

Explore practical ways to extend an existing website into a mobile app experience without automatically rebuilding everything from scratch.

MOBILE

Mobile Experience

Review the existing website and identify the parts that need to work particularly well on touch screens.

APP

App Approach

Discuss suitable approaches for the existing website, required features and the intended audience.

PUSH

Notifications

Plan optional push notification features where the chosen technology and app approach support them.

STORE

Store Guidance

Prepare content, screenshots and practical information needed for app-store submission.

REUSE

Reuse Content

Where appropriate, keep the existing website as the content and data source rather than duplicating everything.

PLAN

Future Growth

Make decisions that leave room for additional app features later.

Plain-English approach.

The right approach depends on the existing site, required app features, store requirements and budget. A website does not automatically need a full native rebuild to gain an app-style experience.

How this can fit into a wider website project

Many projects combine several services. A website might start with design and responsive development, then add forms, databases, member accounts, search, APIs, analytics or ongoing support as requirements become clearer.
