Build iOS and Android Apps From Your BuddyPress Site
Improve the user experience and boost engagement with native mobile apps synced with your site
Dave Yankowiak, Leaderbooks, Michael Hyatt and Co
“The actual native app is what makes it easy for people. They don’t have to log in every time. It’s right on their home screen, they can click the button. Another benefit of the app is the push notifications. There’s more real time convenience that comes with having those push notifications versus email”

Our platform gives you all the benefits of native apps – without you getting sucked into a project that lasts for months and adds needless complexity, stress and expense to your life.

“I’ll never forget the day that we went live and that we were able to post on social media telling everybody to download our new app. It was almost as if our entire company took a step forward by allowing us to be present in the Apple Store, in Google Play.”

How Does it Work?
MobiLoud is a proven platform developed and refined over 7 years. Although we now allow users to build iOS and Android apps from any CMS or web app, we started out with an exclusive focus on WordPress sites. We built special integrations for some of the most popular and powerful WordPress plugins, including BuddyPress and BuddyBoss.
Our platform takes any BuddyPress site and converts it into modern apps for iOS and Android. Rather than building the apps from scratch or through a no-code DIY builder – your existing site is wrapped it in a ‘native skin’. Think of it like a dedicated browser for your existing site that can be published on the App Store and Google play.
It’s much more than just a dedicated browser though. Along with leveraging your existing site’s content and layout, you can integrate all your site’s features and functionality too.
You can integrate the registration and login screens into the apps, and also set up push notifications to trigger based on certain BuddyBoss and BuddyPress events. Whenever a social interaction like a message or friendship request triggers a notification on the site, the apps will automatically generate a push notification, just like the Facebook or Instagram apps. Instead of only getting notified when they visit your site, now your users will be notified wherever they are on the lock screens of their smart phones. This really boosts the power of notifications and helps to build a habit around your brand.
Canvas also integrates any other plugins or third-party tools you use. No app builder or DIY tool can do this, as they limit you to pre-built themes and templates, and BuddyPress specific services will only integrate unrelated functionalities for a steep customization fee and months of work.
Your users get a vastly improved UX that feels like the big social apps they are accustomed to and use every day. You get the major benefits of native apps – a presence on the app stores, a visibility boost, higher engagement and retention, push notifications and more. All spending a fraction of the time and money it would take through other avenues.
Create an Engaging and Modern Social Experience.
In today’s digital world – we are all competing for attention. If you don’t seize attention, earn it, and grow it over time, your competitors will.
A BuddyPress site is a great base, and works well for mobile, but from an and discovery perspective it isn’t ideal. Apps bridge the gap and provide the perfect mobile UX.
