This sounds interesting. Is this something Glide endorses or acknowledges works without breaking apps built in Glide? Thanks. ---

Hi MrApp, Thank you for your interest. Your Glide app will not be altered as we’ll generate builds based on your URL. Simply put, your web app becomes a publishable native app allowing functions like the ones mentioned in the first post. One exception is Google login which was interrupted by Google last year as it does not support web login on Webview anymore. Let me know if more info is requested. Cheers, Sam ---

Sam, what about IOS? It has been my experience that when you use this type of service for IOS you still see a pop up on the screen that says “add this device to your home screen”. Have you been able to successfully remove that prompt when publishing Glide apps to Apple app store? ---

Hi @Steven, It does not show any popup since we use a native compilation. The pop up is triggered when a browser (or a simulator) is used. Here is a quick demo on iphone: [https://youtu.be/0AKn3gRN81A](https://youtu.be/0AKn3gRN81A) You also can test on the Previewer. Cheers, Sam ---

Hi @Sam_nat - I’m very interested in trying this out for one of my apps but I am iOS at home (have android too) and when I click on the ‘preview by app before buying’ link ([https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nativator.io](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nativator.io)) it takes me to Google Play Store where I am told I do not have a device. Is it possible to preview the app on an iPhone - and if so, how? Thanks!

Hello @Mark_Turrell Apologies for the late reply. For android, you need to install the app on your device, from the mobile device. You can test your Glide app and rendering will be valid for both Android and iOS. As iOS previewer, it will be released soon. Cheers, Sam ---

Hi, Thank you for using our services. We have informed (in this topic) that google login was deprecated by google in 2020 for webview. FB, Twitter, Linkedin, Apple and other login APIs are still working. Cheers, Sam ---

It’s been asked before - but does Glide endorse this product? On the face of it this seems like a very nice tool and good value at 6.99/month. But in my humble opinion, the website sucks since there is scant little information about what it takes - just a promise that it’s very easy. Hmm. In my [limited] experience of publishing apps in the Apple App store, things are far from easy. Can anyone else share their experiences? ---
