You are about to launch a world-class mobile app with Shopney. Here is the good news! There are only three easy steps to get your app live! Let's go ahead and get started.
1- Getting Apple & Google Developer Accounts
Apple and Google developer accounts are mandatory for publishing your app under your name or brand. These accounts enhance trust and credibility with your customers while giving you full control of your app. If you haven’t created your developer accounts yet, follow the steps below to get started. The process typically takes 2-7 days!
If you already have these developer accounts, it'll be enough for you to send invitations to [email protected] and let the Shopney Support Team via Live Chat so we can take care of the whole launching process for you!
2- Designing Mobile App
Designing your mobile app is a crucial step in creating a unique and engaging experience for your users. A well-thought-out design not only enhances the visual appeal of your app but also plays a significant role in its functionality and user experience. The best part about designing your Shopney mobile app is that you don't need to have any technical or design background. Thanks to our Shopney Design Editor, you'll be able to design a top-notch mobile app within minutes and with only drag-drop movements!
Each element you drag from the left-hand side menu into the central design area will become adjustable. You can easily fill the element with your store content and make customizations from the element-related menu that opens on the right-hand side.
From layout to color schemes, every design choice impacts how customers interact with your app, influencing retention and satisfaction. These guides will help you navigate the key aspects of mobile app design, ensuring that your app stands out and delivers a seamless experience that keeps users coming back.

3- Preparing App Listing Form
An app listing form provides users with key information about your app on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. It captures important details such as the app’s name, description, features, and visuals.
We need you to provide that info by filling out your app listing form on the Shopney dashboard. To open the form, you need to click on the "PUBLISH" button as shown below.
The details provided in the app listing form help potential users understand what your app offers and why they should download it. Filling out this form accurately is key to making a strong first impression, optimizing your app’s visibility, and attracting the right audience and it only takes 10 minutes to complete!
• Google Analytics Integration
You cannot manage what you can't measure. We offer Google Analytics integration so you optimize your campaigns and improve your app to achieve better results. If you want to learn how you can integrate your app with it, read the Google Analytics Integration Guide.
• 3rd Party Shopify App Integration
If you want to enable 3rd party apps for your mobile app, please navigate to the "Integrations" section of your Shopney dashboard and follow the steps that will pop up once you click on the app you wish to enable.
4- Review and Launch
Now that you’ve completed the key steps—finalizing your app design, filling out the App Listing Form, and inviting our team to your Apple and Google developer accounts—it’s time to review everything before submission.
Check your app design to confirm that it reflects the user experience you want, keeping in mind that you can still make adjustments even after your app goes live. Verify the details in the App Listing Form, ensuring they communicate your app’s purpose to potential users. Lastly, make sure the invitations from your developer accounts have been successfully sent and verified on our end.
By thoroughly reviewing these steps, you can help guarantee a smooth and error-free app submission process, leading to a successful launch on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
5- What is next?
Your app is now ready for submission to the Apple and Google stores!
After we submit your app to the stores, the process will be managed by Apple and Google review teams. While Apple usually takes 1-2 business days to complete their reviews, Google may take up to a week.
✅ Reminder
You can always make changes to your app design and store information even after submission. Please refer to this guide to see which changes will take effect immediately on your live app and which ones will require us to submit an update.
