Hello,
I was just curious if there’s any free plugins to convert wordpress to mobile app for buddypress themes?
Thank you!
Hi @surya1,
i guess no. it’s a completely different work with their relative prices.
Let’s wait if anyone knows more
Hi @surya1, @youfriend,
Actually there are, but I would recommend again using them as they are not notable for providing great performing apps. You might mostly end up with a sluggish version of your responsive website that might frustrate your members…
The most notorious system is AppPresser but there are others. For more, please read the following post:
https://www.wpbeginner.com/showcase/best-plugins-to-convert-wordpress-into-mobile-app/Our suggestion is to create your very own mobile app with a framework such as React Native and try to reach the WP-API activated on your website. Sadly, this will obviously cost you, but this will have a real mobile feel and perform very well. 🙂
Cheers,
Thanks for that, Oliver and Andrea.
I came across this add to home screen plugin which I think should be a good solution: https://wordpress.org/plugins/add-to-home-screen-wp/#description
But I am not sure if it has mobile push notifications. That’s my primary use case. Any suggestions for that?
Thank you!
@surya1, my understanding is that this plugin will load some script to let your members download a Home screen shortcut to your website. However, this should not activate push notifications.
Unfortunately, this is way out of my wheelhouse but I think that you might be interested in giving a try to this plugin:
I would also suggest you to read this post as it compares multiple plugins providing a feature similar to the one you’re looking for:
Thanks Oliver! I’ll take a look.
You’re welcome.
Cheers,
