Content-focused web framework · Platform guide

Convert your Astro site into native iOS & Android apps.

Astro is a web framework for content-driven sites that renders to static HTML by default and loads interactive islands only where needed; sites deploy to static hosts or servers via adapters. We wrap your published Astro site into real App Store and Google Play apps – no coding, delivered within 72 hours, full source code included.

Why an app for your Astro site?

From browser tab to home screen.

Astro sites are fast and lightweight, which makes them pleasant to use inside a native app shell. Publishers, documentation teams and marketing sites built with Astro can reach the App Store and Google Play by wrapping the deployed URL, without maintaining native code. The JavaScript bridge enables push notifications via OneSignal, AdMob ads, sharing and other native features on top of your existing site.

Your app behaves like a full-screen browser for your Astro site: every change you publish on Astro is live in the app immediately – no app update required. Native features such as push notifications, an offline screen, native dialogs and smart link handling are added on top.

Home screen presence

A real app icon on iPhone and Android devices, installed from the App Store and Google Play.

Push notifications

Re-engage users with OneSignal push messages – or trigger local notifications from your own JavaScript.

Offline screen

Instead of browser errors, users see a branded offline screen with a "Try again" button.

Monetization

AdMob banners and interstitials, in-app purchases and native sharing dialogs are supported.

How it works for Astro

Three steps to your Astro app.

1

Publish your Astro site

Make sure your site is live on a public URL (ideally your own domain) and looks good on a phone screen – that URL is what we wrap.

2

Order in a few minutes

Tell us your URL, app name and icon in the order wizard, pick the native features you need and pay securely with Stripe.

3

Receive your apps within 72 hours

We configure the WebViewGold template for your project, optimize it and deliver the full Xcode & Android Studio source code plus store-ready builds.

Preparation checklist

Prepare your Astro site for the app stores.

A few platform-specific tips from our App Specialists for the best result:

  • Deploy to a production domain over HTTPS; the app points to that URL permanently.
  • Check your layouts and interactive islands at phone width, including navigation menus and search.
  • If you use SSR adapters for auth or forms, keep them on the same domain so sessions persist in the app.
  • Avoid opening internal links in new tabs so the app keeps a single view for navigation.
  • Not sure about a setting? Leave it to us – everything can be changed later in the source code, and our support is happy to advise.

Built on WebViewGold. Every Astro app we deliver is based on WebViewGold, the WebView app template for iOS & Android developed by our own team – battle-tested in the stores and continuously updated for the latest iOS and Android versions. Prefer to do it yourself? Get the template directly on webviewgold.com.

FAQ

Astro to app: frequently asked questions

Can an Astro site use native features?

Yes. The app provides a JavaScript bridge for OneSignal push notifications, AdMob ads, in-app purchases, sharing and QR scanning. Call it from client-side scripts or framework islands when the page runs inside the app, with normal browser behaviour as a fallback.

Is a static Astro site enough for app approval?

Apple expects an app to offer more than a static brochure, so sites with searchable content, regular updates, member areas or interactive features do best. We advise on preparing your app, and if Apple rejects it, you can claim a refund within 14 days of purchase.

Will new builds of my Astro site appear in the app?

Yes. The app loads your live deployment, so every build you publish is visible immediately without resubmitting the app. Only changes to the native shell, such as icon or name, require a new app build, which you can do with the delivered source code.

How much does it cost and how do I pay?

Converting one platform (iOS or Android) is a one-time fee of $698; the iOS + Android bundle costs $1,158 (you save $238). The optional App Publishing Service is $318 per platform. Payment is handled securely by Stripe (cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay). Prices exclude VAT.

What exactly do I receive?

The complete Xcode project (iOS) and/or Android Studio project including signed APK/AAB files and keystore (Android), plus a step-by-step quick start guide for the App Store and Google Play submission. The apps are built on the WebViewGold template, so you keep the full, editable source code.

What if Apple or Google rejects the app?

Store approval depends on the content of your app, and most WebView apps based on a responsive, app-like website pass review. If Apple or Google rejects your app for non-content reasons, we offer a full refund of the setup fee when you claim it within 14 days after purchase – see our Terms and Conditions.
