WebView mobile application development

The company Ocean-agency is constantly developing, offering clients new and modern services. One of these options was the development of WebView applications. What is this alternative and why should you choose it for doing business?

What is a WebView application?

Using the WebView component, it becomes possible to open the target web page or even the entire resource in the application. Yes, special, deep transition links are sewn into it to go to the landing page, specially configured for the offer. With such deeplinks (links), users are redirected to the desired offer. So, for example, when clicking on an advertising window, a bonus is offered. The component counts conversions and issues these bonuses. You can also track offer IDs, creatives, and a number of other factors with the help of deeplinks.

Cloaking is used to bypass the moderator - a special plug that will show the operation of the white product, while users will get the offer.

What are the advantages of WebView applications?

WebView programs are designed so that the link to the target site is placed inside. During the transition, users are already in the browser, but at the same time the overlap of the interface is thought out, which means that they will not be able to go back. Many have already met the WebView component while working with Facebook or Instagram. Studies have shown a loyal attitude towards such a transition and browser opening.

Advantages also include:

• the opening of new communication possibilities, for example, you can develop a chat inside the program;
• detailed analytics, statistics thanks to built-in mobile trackers;
• access to testing, target audience segmentation;
• a wide range of platforms for program promotion (Tik-Tok, Facebook, Google, etc.);
• high trust in the development, because it is known that Google Play checks applications;
• convenient rental at a minimal cost;
• push notifications will help to do monetization.

How does the webview program work?

The principle of operation of the web is simple:

• Development or purchase of a site;
• Complementing it with an offer with the help of an arbitrator;
• The formation of a plug for the moderator, when opened, a white project is visible in them;
• When opened by the user - transition to the offer.

Often the application is used for offers of different verticals, it helps to reduce risks. The ban of one program can work on dating offers, etc.

All WebView programs consist of:

• The external part - icons, graphics, names. It helps pass the moderators.
• The inner part is a page that is built into the program to redirect traffic to the offer. The landing page is often placed on a cheap domain, a set of characters. But this scares users, because the address is suspicious - it is better to create the visibility of the site as much as possible. This will help to avoid closing and deleting the site.

The app also includes a built-in link to track interactions with visitors.

The best option to get a high-quality WebView application is to order it from professionals. With reliable developers, you can maximize the project plan and get an excellent result. Ocean-agency specialists offer such a service on the most favorable terms. Extensive experience will allow you to get a really effective component and further development. With such applications, the risks of a development ban are reduced both during the first stage of Google Play's automatic review, and during the second stage of manual review. But at the same time, such components are usually not durable, the average life expectancy is 1-3 weeks. They can be improved if an experienced specialist publishes the application, the developer account will be warmed up. Sometimes it is appropriate to offer the installation of an application bypassing the Store, if this product is really interesting to the audience.
