Convert a Jimdo website to an app

Jimdo makes simple sites quickly. Converting one into an app is just as quick — the work is making the app worth keeping.

Key takeawayUse your Jimdo site's address as the start URL. Jimdo layouts are mobile-ready; custom head code for in-app tweaks depends on your plan and editor (Creator or the newer builder). Jimdo store checkout works in the app. As with any small site, give the app a reason to exist — ordering, bookings or notifications — to pass Google Play review and keep users.

Two Jimdo editors

Older sites use Jimdo Creator; newer ones the simpler website builder. Both produce mobile-friendly pages. Creator offers more control over custom code.

Mobile check

Check navigation, image galleries and contact forms at 360px. Forms work in the app; file uploads need a converter with file chooser support.

Store

Jimdo's online store and checkout work inside the app. Test each payment method you offer.

Make it app-worthy

Use push for offers or news, a splash screen with your logo, and an offline screen.

Frequently asked

Can I add custom code to Jimdo for the app?

Depending on your plan and editor, Jimdo allows head code. If not, the app still works — you just can't hide web-only elements.

Can I publish a converted Jimdo site on Google Play?

Yes, if it offers real app value and meets Play policies.
