3.1. Designing Your Mobile App

During this phase, you'll craft your mobile app using the

Omniful dashboard. You'll also tackle various other tasks, all of which are straightforward.

3.2 Getting Apple & Google Developer Accounts:

At Omniful App Builder, we prioritize your control over your mobile app. Therefore, we encourage you to have your developer accounts for Apple and Google to launch your mobile apps. If you don't have developer accounts yet, we've prepared detailed guides for each platform. You can follow the step-by-step instructions in the guides to create your accounts:

3.3 Sending Developer Account Invitations to Omniful App Builder Team:

While you focus on your business, our team takes care of the entire app submission and launch process. To facilitate this, our team will need access to your developer accounts. You can provide this access by sending invitations to the Omniful App Builder team.

Instructions for inviting the Omniful App Builder team can be found at https://intercom.help/omniful/en/articles/9193878-how-to-invite-omniful-to-google-account

Important Note: After sending the invitations, please inform the Omniful App Builder team via email or live chat.

3.4 3rd Party Shopify App Integration:

If you wish to enable one or more third-party apps for your mobile app, you can do so easily, either before or after the app launch, without the need for an app update. Simply follow the steps required to enable the desired app(s).

3.5 Providing Mobile App Listing Information:

Your app requires listing information for the App Store and Play Store. You can provide this information by filling out the app information form on the Omniful App Builder dashboard. To access the form, read https://intercom.help/omniful/en/articles/9196155-how-to-fill-out-your-app-listing-form-like-a-pro

3.6 Requesting Mobile App Submission:

Once you've filled out the App Information Form, you can request the Omniful App Builder team to submit your app to the application stores.

Important Note: The Omniful App Builder Quality Assurance Team will thoroughly check your mobile app to ensure everything is working perfectly before launch. Your app will be submitted to Apple and Google within 5 business days.

3.7 Mobile App Review & Launch:

After submission, your app will undergo review by the Apple and Google teams. This review process typically takes 4-5 days for Google and 3-4 days for Apple. Once the review is complete, your app will be launched and made available to users.

Additional Note: During the review process for your Android app, we won't receive review status emails from Google since we are not the account holder. If you receive an email regarding your Android app review status from Google, please notify us and forward it to [email protected] for prompt action.
