Mobile applications for iOS and Android

[AndreiMaz]

It'll be based on Flutter

Update: The official mobile application for nopCommerce is now available on our website.

It's Great to know that is there is a plan for Mobile App development. For our use case, Flutter is much better. One code-base and still almost same performance anyway as this is an eCommerce app not a game or GPU\CPU intensive App.

Very Excited to see this along with API support #4988

Flutter app will be great!

I see that it's been removed from 4.50. Will this be part of 4.60? This item was created in 2017, it's 4 years and nothing materialized till now.

Why not MAUI?

[AndreiMaz]

Started working on this task

Flutter OR MAUI OR Xamrin?

[AndreiMaz]

Flutter

[nextfool]

MAUI would be a great choice for .net developers....

[rajupaladiya]

MAUI would be a great choice for .net developers....

I do agree

[AndreiMaz]

We've considered MAUI. But it's still not ready for production and doesn't work well

[nextfool]

Hi @AndreiMaz , thanks for the clarification, but still IMHO, being not based on MAUI is a pity. Maybe you can just release beta(even alpha) versions, and wait till MAUI is mature enough. Developing with flutter or any other production ready solutions takes lot of time and versions anyway.

[AndreiMaz]

@nextfool Sure, we understand that. Once MAUI is mature and stable enough, we can consider release of one more version of the mobile app (based on MAUI). But nowadays Flutter is much better choice for developers and merchants

I think nopcommerce can be integrated with fluxstore. There is no point in writing an application from scratch https://codecanyon.net/item/fluxstore-the-universal-woocommerce-magento-opencart-mobile-app-by-flutter-framework/24020929

Hi @AndreiMaz , are we sure that this ticket will be completed with next release (version 4.6) at planned timeline(Nov 1) or will there be any delay, if yes please share the expected date of completion.

[AndreiMaz]

The mobile is almost completed (80%)

[balajivelu147]

great.. good to know, thanks for the quick response.. @AndreiMaz

[kava81]

Hi @AndreiMaz Mobile applications will be compatible only with 4.60 or also previous version? thanks

[AndreiMaz]

@kava81 Most probably, we'll support 4.50 as well

[matthewha]

Hi @AndreiMaz,

Great to see this coming along. Will the app/s cover just customer functions or will there be administration functionality as well?

Thanks

[DmitriyKulagin]

@matthewha Customer functions only

[matthewha]

@matthewha Customer functions only

Thanks @DmitriyKulagin - will be great to have. Would also be useful to have an app that allows the vendor functionality (the administrator functions can always be done through a web browser) such as adding/modifying/etc. products, fulfilling orders, etc. too

[amirkhanjz]

I think it's time to send this to next milestone and release 4.6 as this work item was not in 4.6 changelog pdf.

[AndreiMaz]

The mobile app will be released in about 2 weeks. We'll support nopCommerce versions 4.50 and 4.60

[dev3380]

When mobile app will be released?

[jjcowo]

When will the app be released?

[AndreiMaz]

In about a week

[cratosomg]

We should promote the application by placing difference tempting things to the customers. Example % offer, free shipping, buy three get one free or other things depending on the business. So customers will make more use of the app.
