What is Natively?
Last updated
Natively is a no-code tool that converts your website into a native iOS and Android app.
Instead of rebuilding your product from scratch, Natively wraps your website inside a native app shell using WebView, an embedded browser built into every iOS and Android device. Your web content runs inside it exactly as it does in a mobile browser, while the native shell gives you access to device features your website alone can't reach.
Once your app is running in Natively, you can go beyond what a website offers. A mobile app unlocks capabilities that a browser simply can't provide - sending Push Notifications to bring users back, accepting In-App Purchases, scanning QR codes, reading NFC tags, or verifying identity with Biometrics. These are just a few examples of what becomes possible.
Natively supports a wide range of native features that you can enable as your app grows. Most features can be configured directly from the Natively Dashboard. For features that require deeper integration, Natively provides a JavaScript SDK and a Bubble plugin.
Because your app loads content from your website, any change you publish to your site is immediately reflected in the app - no rebuild, no resubmission to the App Store or Google Play required. This means you can ship content updates, fix bugs, and iterate on your product at web speed, without going through the app store review process each time.
Rebuilds are only needed when you make changes to your Natively Dashboard configuration - like enabling a new feature, updating your app icon, or modifying permissions.
