With Scoreapps you can build almost any kind of App, without having to program a single line of code.
But to make things even easier for you, here are a series of Step-by-Step Guides to help you build the most common kinds of apps:
But if you still don´t find the correct guide, don´t worry.
If you follow this simple step-by-step article, you will see the basic structure of any App.
All up and running in less than half an hour.
You can even preview the app on your smartphone if you want to.
And the best thing is that you can build your own, without having to hire any programmers, designers or engineers.
Bu let´s get started.
First Steps
Regardless of the type of App you decide to build, the following steps are all common.
Once inside, from the main dashboard you will find a series of icons on the left hand side menu.
Just click on 'Apps'.
Then click on 'Create App' and give it a name.
Then you'll get to a screen where you choose the templates.
The library contains predesigned templates so that you don´t have to start from zero, even though, later on you could change everything.
In fact, you could change the template you choose now. And if you don't find one that fits, just click on 'Blank Template' to start designing your App from scratch.
The process of creating Apps with Scoreapps is very simple. You just have to follow the different steps that the builder offers you.
These steps are represented in the progress bar you´ll find at the top of the builder and easily allow you to go through all the different pages.
First step. Designing the App
Layout Election Window
The Home Screen Options section shows the options available depending on the kind of layout you have chosen.
Adding a slider or animated image carousel to your App is very simple and can be done in less than 10 seconds.
Just check the box called 'Display the homepage slider' and then press save.
Please note that not all browsing styles (Layouts) support the use of Sliders.
If you scroll down a little you will find a new section called 'Homepage preview':
- Indicate whether you want the images to move in loop.
- Specify the duration of your Slider.
- Adjust the opacity of the images.
- Choose the height of the images.
- Indicate whether you want the images to move in loop.
- Specify the duration of your Slider.
- Adjust the opacity of the images.
- Choose the height of the images.
If you want the images of the Slideroccupy the whole screenmake sure you mark the100% 100% 100%in the Height selectorof Imagenes. We recommend that you have a size of1432X2732 pages.
Finally click 'Add pictures' and upload them or add them from the gallery.
The images should not exceed 3,000 pixels and it is recommended that they do not weigh more than 500kb.
The section below, helps you choose a fully optimized image that fits the different screen ratios so that it can be perfectly displayed on any mobile device.
Use the overlay tool to check important information to know if your design fits the indicated sizing areas of the screen design.
To find out how to design the images correctly you can download the template with the measurements, both in .png and .psd format.
In this 5-minute video I show you how to fully design the Home Screen of your App:
Below this section, you´ll be able to choose the language of country where you are operating and also the currency of your app.
To change the text fonts of your App you can chose one form the app builder's menu, or import a new font from Google Fonts.
To do so, it is as simple as writing the font name.
Do you want to preview the App on your mobile device?
Viewing the prototype on your own smartphone is very simple. Just click on the 'Promote' icon on the left side menu:
Then scan the QR code with your smartphone and then click on the top of your smartphone.
Congratulations! What we have done so far would have meant several weeks of development and also paying a team of programmers.
Now, let's edit the colors of your App before we move on to set up the different features.
Second step. Colors
Choose the main colors of the app.
- General: applies to the substance (if there is no specific image) and the general text.
- Start: applies to the navigation menu and its elements.
- Header: applies to the navigation header of the app.
- Card: applies to items displayed in card format.
- List: applies to items displayed in list format.
- Start: applies to the navigation menu and its elements.
- Header: applies to the navigation header of the app.
- Card: applies to items displayed in card format.
- List: applies to items displayed in list format.
In addition, if you have previous experience in web programming, at the bottom of the dashboard you´ll find a space to be able to add CSS code and customize the app even more.
Third step. Features
We´ve gone a long way so far :)
Once the initial screen is designed and we´ve chosen the main colors of the App, it´s time to add all the different features.
Your App will soon be completed.
If you started your App from a template, you would see that they already have some features added by default.
These are features that we consider are interesting for each industry. They appear as a kind of carousel and if you want to delete any of them, all you have to do is click on the X.
Now, it's time to think about what we want the App to do...
User registration, sell products, manage bookings and reservations, loyalty systems, display content...
We have many features to chose and add to your app.
You can see them all by clicking on the following link:
And if you can´t find a specific feature for what you want to do ... please contact us.
At the bottom of the app builder, on the right side you´ll find the Help Desk question mark.
From there you can contact our Support Team.
Remember that we are here to help.
