You've got questions? We've got answers.

Our customers usually ask us these important questions. Visit our FAQ for more. You can learn even more in our Documentation or our Support Forum. Or, contact us and our dedicated team will assist.

How long does it take to turn my website into an app?

The Median App Studio will build your app within minutes. You’ll then be able to preview your app immediately in our browser-based simulators or download to test on a physical device. Once you’ve finished configuring your app you can then publish to the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

Looking to have our team develop and publish your app? Typically we can have your app developed and published to the app stores within two weeks.

Will this work with my website?

Yes! The Median platform works with all website development platforms. Your app will display your website content as it is displayed in a mobile web browser such as Mobile Safari or Mobile Chrome.

We have many customers who develop their web content using Wordpress, Weebly, Wix, Webflow, and more. And customers who build web applications to deploy as web apps using Microsoft .NET and SharePoint, Salesforce Lightning, Bubble.io.

Most websites will display within apps created using Median automatically. To build highly immersive native apps as a web developer use the Median JavaScript Bridge to add a range of native functionality

  • Change the app status bar color dynamically to match your web content and branding
  • Add native navigation menus such as a native bottom tab bar menu
  • Adjust the device screen brightness when displaying a QR code for other devices to scan
  • Prevent the device screen from timing out and going to sleep when showing long form content for the user to read
What's different than a basic webview wrapper app?

Apps built using Median are much more than a wrapper app. The Median platform allows you to build an app with advanced native functionality and features. You can add native navigation menus, native push notifications (with OneSignal and other push providers), and incorporate our premium native plugins such as Face ID / Touch ID Biometric authentication, Social Login, QR/Barcode scanner, In-App Purchases, and much more.

When building your app you'll also benefit from the Median build platform which has been supported and maintained since early 2014. As iOS and Android changes are released you can rebuild your app using the Median App Studio to maintain compatibility while avoiding the overhead that comes from maintaining your own code base.

What happens if something changes on my website?

All changes made to your website will be reflected immediately in your app similarly to how they are reflected immediately in a standard mobile browser. Native apps built using Median obey the same cache headers as a standard browser. If you are experiencing delays seeing your updated website reflected in your app you should verify the cache headers that are being sent by your web server and review potential solutions in our documentation.

How much does it cost to turn my website into an app?

There is no cost to build a Median Free app. When published to the Apple App Store and Google Play Store your app will display a small "Powered by Median.co" message at launch and the JavaScript Bridge will not be available for advanced integration.

To build a completely white label app with full JavaScript Bridge capabilities a Median Professional license can be purchased directly within our App Studio on the Licence tab or on our website at https://median.co/pricing.

In addition to the app license, we offer a variety of optional add-ons and services. These include:

  • Push Notifications using our integration with OneSignal or through other push notification providers.
  • Native Plugins that provide access to a range of device functionality and third-party services.
  • A Full-Service Concierge service, where our team handles and completes all app development work to produce a publish-ready app using the Median platform.
  • An App Store Publishing service, where our team completes all steps that are required to publish your app to the app stores and guarantees successful approval
  • Custom development to extend the Median platform to integrate third-party SDKs and add advanced functionality for your specific use case
  • And more!
Can I publish a webview app to the app store?

Yes! So long as your app meets the applicable Apple and Google requirements you will not face any issues publishing your app to the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Our Publishing Guide contains all of the information you will need to self-publish your app.

You can also use our experienced team to handle the publishing end-to-end and make the process as seamless as possible. When using our team we provide a 100% guarantee of app store acceptance.

Whether you choose to self-publish or have our team publish on your behalf you will need an Apple Developer Account and a Google Play Developer Account. You can apply for both accounts using the links below.
