This Knowledge Base article explains how to use a custom splash page when building an app using Appdome Secure PWA.
What is a Custom Splash Page in a PWA?
Splash screens or splash customized page that loads as soon as your PWA launches, before any other screen loads. Splash pages can be used for a wide variety of functions such as providing welcome information to new visitors, showcasing a new product, or displaying any other standalone page designed to get users excited for the site they’re about to view. With Appdome, you can use customized splash pages for your Secure PWA.
What is Appdome Secure PWA?
Appdome Secure PWA is a no-code mobile development framework that enables anyone to convert any website into a mobile application in minutes – no code or coding required. Using Appdome, anyone can build a progressive web app (PWA) that runs on any iOS or Android device with a native-like experience. The only thing you need to convert any website into a mobile application is a reachable website. Simply input an existing URL into Appdome’s app builder, select your choice of platform (Android, iOS, or cross-platform), and click Convert To App. Within minutes, the Appdome platform automatically converts the website into a mobile application that will run natively on any mobile device for the platform you selected.
Once you have created your mobile application, you can optionally implement your choice of Appdome mobile app security features and build your custom security model directly into the app – all within the same no-code workflow.
