Step 1: Choose A Template
BuildFire offers a wide range of templates that suit any type of business. Once you click, Create My App for Free! you get redirected to a place for you to choose from. Click through the categories and available templates and check how it looks through the emulator found on the right side of the screen. The template on the emulator can be explored and messed around with as it’s interactive; a neat feature to help you choose better.
Step 2: Build Your App in Minutes
Before you can totally get started, BuildFire asks you to enter the type of industry you have to give you better tips and information. On their Control Panel, it’s easy to figure out how to make changes and how good it would look with the emulator that changes in real time as you edit. You can start with your branding and home plugin with the Appearance menu. These menu options are the first things your users see when they open your app. You can edit your name, app icon, and colors with a click of a button.
You can add different plugins from their list to fit your needs and then drag and drop to move them around. You can also add photos and store it in their Media Library. Having them stored in your library is a great way to save time from continuously having to upload the photos you need over and over again.
Making more changes to your app is very easy. Click through the tabs and menu options to see the numerous features BuildFire offers to help your app reach its full potential. And once you’re all set, it’s time for the final step:
Step 3: Publish and Manage
BuildFire makes your app suitable for iOS, Android, and HTML5 mobile websites. Once it’s published, you can still make changes to and manage your app on the platform. When you have updates, you won’t get charged as most subscription plans cover resubmissions. After selecting Publish, you’ll find your app available for Android in a few days and about a week for iOS. Although, the review process is completely off BuildFire’s hands.
