Give your shop a phone app — without the app store
Every Colmado storefront installs to a customer's home screen as a branded mini-app: they tap 'add to home screen' and your shop sits next to their other apps — no app store, no download, no developer account, no fee.
- Installs from a web link — no App Store or Play Store listing.
- Branded icon and name on the customer's home screen.
- Works offline-friendly: the storefront stays usable on a flaky connection.
- Nothing to submit, review, or pay for — a URL is the whole install.
- Same bilingual storefront, just launched like a native app.
A real app, without the app-store tax
Getting a shop into the app stores means a developer account, a review queue, store fees, and a build you have to maintain. Colmado skips all of it: the storefront is a progressive web app, so a customer adds it to their home screen straight from the link and launches it like any other app. You publish by sharing a URL.
Resilient on a real-world connection
A network-first service worker keeps the storefront responsive on a weak signal and serves a friendly page instead of a browser error when the connection drops entirely — so a customer browsing the shelves on the bus doesn't hit a dead end. Orders and payment always go to the network; nothing sensitive is cached.
Frequently asked
- Do I need to publish to the App Store or Play Store?
- No. Colmado storefronts install directly from the web — there's no store listing, no review, and no store fees.
- Does it work offline?
- It's offline-friendly: browsing stays usable on a poor connection and shows a friendly fallback if the network drops. Placing an order and paying always require a live connection.
