A news app for your publication
Breaking news belongs on the lock screen. Turn your news site into an app with push alerts and ads.
Free 7-day Android trial · then pay once from $59.99 · no subscription
Set category tabs — Latest, Politics, Business, Sport — and send breaking alerts to everyone or to topics readers follow. AdMob banners and interstitials add revenue from app readers.
Offline mode on the Native App Builder keeps articles readers opened available on the go.
News app builder in three steps
- Paste your website address
App Studio reads your website and suggests the app name, colours, icon and a tab bar from your menu.
- Design it and test free
Adjust the icon, splash screen, tabs and links in a live phone preview, then install a free Android test app from a QR code.
- Buy once and publish
Buy Android, iOS or both once, build the store versions and publish to Google Play and the App Store under your own name.

Questions about news app builder
Can readers follow topics?
Yes. Subscribe readers to topics from your site and send alerts per topic.
Will my paywall work?
Yes. Metering and sign-in work as on your site. Digital subscriptions sold inside the app need in-app purchases.
How much does it cost?
Website to App is a one-time payment: $59.99 for Android, $99.99 for iOS or $159.98 for both, including a year of free compatibility updates. The free 7-day Android trial costs nothing.
Do website changes need an app update?
No. The app shows your live website, so new content and prices appear instantly. You only rebuild when the app’s own settings change.
