Frequently Asked Questions

faq

How will my app be delivered?

Android app will be delivered as .apk file. You may upload it to any marketplace by yourself (we may submit it to Google Play if you wish) or just put the link on your website to download. We do not sell app source codes, so you get binaries only and not sources.

iPhone app also includes AppStore submission service, so we will submit the app to AppStore for you to avoid additional delays during submission process and to make sure that the app passes all verifications successfully.

faq

I’ve submitted a request for the mobile app. What’s next?

Our specialists will contact you within 24 hours. Once the payment is cleared you will receive a letter that contains a list of questions needed to work on your app. As soon as we receive all the necessary information we will be able to start working on your app.

faq

What is the payment process?

Once we have received your request, we will contact you and talk out the payment method preferred. After that we will send you an invoice and as soon as the payment cleared we will proceed with the app implementation.

faq

How long does it take to get Apps online?

We submit apps within 7 business days after you provide us with all required data. Android apps appears in Google Play immediately after submission. Apple review all apps and this process may take up to 14 days or sometimes even more. We can’t influence on this process.

faq

Will the app fit my website layout?

All apps include basic customizations to fit your website. We may change basic colors, background, put your logo, change header colors, etc. This customization does not include changing any funtionality, forms, field sets, etc. It’s just an overall style to make your app look like a part of your website. As another option we may customize your app, add more features, etc. to fit your needs. If you’re interested please feel free to contact our sales department and get a free quote.

faq

I have a customized SE core. Will the app work with it?

We have server-side part for our applications which we’ll need to install on your SocialEngine website. If you did not changed SE database structure app will work fine. This server part is not a mod to SE, so you’ll be able to update your SocialEngine without any issues.

Important: this version of the app works with Local storage only. So if you’re using Amazon S3 or another storage type for your SocialEngine, app will not work smoothly. We’re working on other storage type support, as well as other plugins support, etc. In the meanwhile the current version is working with Local storage only.

We may ask you to open some server ports to make PUSH notifications work, so this feature may not work if you’re using shared hosting. It’ not a problem on VPS and VDS (and actually some shared hostings too).

faq

I need more features, is it possible to add them to the app?

If you would like to create custom versions of apps, i.e. free app with limited functionality and full-featured paid app, we may customize the app to fit your needs. Kindly contact our sales department.
