Branded App

Put your business on the home screen.

Your website, turned into an installable app with your name, your icon, and push notifications.

This is an add-on to a Throughway website build. We take the site we make for you and turn it into a full branded app your customers can install in one tap. It's not a standalone product. It pairs with your website and gives repeat customers a faster way back to you.

What you get

Your customers tap once and your app lands on their home screen, with your name under the icon and your logo on top. No App Store, no download wait, no review process. The next time they want to book, order, or check your hours, they open your app instead of hunting for your site in a browser.

Inside, it's the website we built for you, running full screen with no browser bars. It loads fast, works offline for the basics, and feels like a real app because it is one. You also get push notifications, so a sale, a new opening, or a loyalty reward can land right on their phone.

Because the app is your website, you only maintain one thing. Update the site and the app updates with it. There's no second codebase to keep in sync and no separate content to manage.

What it does

  • Home-screen icon. Your name and logo sit on the phone home screen, right next to the apps people use every day.
  • One-tap install. Customers add it straight from your website. No App Store, no review, no waiting.
  • Push notifications. Send a message to a customer's phone for a sale, a booking reminder, or a loyalty reward.
  • Full-screen, native feel. The site runs with no browser bars, so it looks and moves like a real app.
  • Works offline for the basics. Core pages still open when the connection drops.
  • One thing to maintain. The app is your website. Update the site and the app updates too.
  • Faster repeat visits. One tap brings customers back instead of a browser search.

The price

Get a quote

The Branded App is an add-on, an upsell on top of a website build, not something you buy on its own. It needs a Throughway website to run, because the app is your website. If you already have one with us, we can add the app to it. If you're getting a site built, we can fold the app in at the same time. Either way, book a call and we'll quote it against your site.

Who it fits

  • Businesses that already have or are getting a Throughway website
  • Salons, gyms, and studios where customers come back week after week
  • Restaurants and cafes that want repeat orders and a spot on the home screen

FAQ

Common questions

Do I need a Throughway website first?
Yes. The Branded App is an add-on to a Throughway website build, not a standalone product. We turn the website we build for you into the app. If you don’t have a Throughway website yet, we set that up first and the app sits on top of it.
Do customers download it from the App Store?
They install it straight from your website with one tap, so it lands on the home screen with your name and icon. There’s no App Store review and no waiting. On most phones the prompt to install shows up on its own.
Can it send push notifications?
Yes. Once a customer installs the app, you can send push notifications to their phone for things like a sale, a new opening, or a loyalty reward. We set that up as part of the build.

Give your regulars a faster way back.

If customers come back to you again and again, an icon on their home screen and a push notification when something's new are worth a lot. The Branded App is an add-on to your Throughway website, so it builds on a site you already have or one we're making for you. Book a call and we'll show you how it works on a real phone.
