Hi, @Thepssaini! 👋

There’s no alternative to web-viewer, and your idea **might** get your developer accounts (Play Store & App Store) suspended. Because, (AFAIK) neither iOS store, nor android store accepts blank apps with just a web-view.

How about making a fresh app that corresponds to your website rather than displaying _just_ a website in your app?

Thanks! 😊

What kind of functionality does your website provide? I ask because thunkable can replicate many but not all things a website completes. Maybe provide a link to your site?

You may be able to use Framwork7 within the webViewer, but that kinda defeats the purpose of using thunkable in the first place IMO. Nonetheless, it’s a super cool potential feature that I have seen users like @actech discuss. I would love to see a nice working version (maybe i missed this part in the examples)

If it is a simple contact form and info about your company, this is very easy to accomplish. You could potentially add a chat feature like a ‘help desk’, a harder task but very useful if you don’t have regular face-to-face contact with your users.

How to get the help you want.

You got the idea for step 1. Now step 2. Nobody can tell you how to make an app without knowing what goes into it first.
