We rounded up every mobile app builder that works with VTEX stores and ranked the top 2, so you can skip the research and pick the right one with confidence.
Updated July 2026
Your VTEX store already converts on desktop and mobile web — but a native app is a different channel entirely. It puts your brand on the home screen, sends push notifications that land straight on the lock screen (no ad spend, no algorithm, no crowded inbox), and remembers logins and payment details so checkout is a tap rather than a form.
In practice that means higher repeat-purchase rates and mobile conversion that consistently beats the mobile web. Apps are where a store's most loyal customers live — and for mostVTEX merchants, building one no longer means hiring developers. The tools below turn your existing store into iOS and Android apps, with a range of approaches and price points.

A done-for-you service that builds native iOS & Android apps on your existing site and web platform, plus native Swift/Kotlin components. Full feature and integration parity with your site, and no duplicate work to manage.

The "best" builder depends on your stage, budget and how hands-on you want to be. A few things worth weighing before you commit:
Every builder gets a WAP Score — our proprietary 0–10 rating that powers this ranking. Rather than one reviewer's opinion, it blends longevity, the weight of independent customer reviews, service model, and flexibility & functionality. Pricing always comes from each vendor's own pricing page, and a tool that won't name a customer or say when it was founded scores lower for it.
Full details are on our methodology page.
Your VTEX store deserves an app. So do your customers. With more traffic and sales coming through mobile every year, offering your best customers a smoother, more convenient mobile experience is now a must for any brand that relies on repeat purchases.
