App-Creating Apps

The Dwnld App Cuts Out the Middle Man

— September 10, 2014 — Tech
The Dwnld app is an affordable, easy way for would-be business people and entrepreneurs to create apps of their own.

Creating a website is only half the battle; in today's digital landscape, you need to make your product or service available in a mobile format. These days, smartphones rule. The Dwnld app saves you from having to hire a developer to create your app; instead, for a mere $15 a month, you can enter your website and receive an app-version of it.

If you're thinking that it's too good to be true, and that the app will turn out to be really shoddy, think again! The software is so sophisticated, it can generate a preview of your totally functional, rather posh app within a few seconds. You can customize the app with personal touches, and then publish it in the App Store, in a few simple clicks. Of course, you'll have to wait for Apple to give your app the go-ahead, a process which may take up to ten days.
