This plugin adds a <code>/my-apps/</code> route to your WordPress so that it can act as your personal apps launcher.
You can use your own WordPress as the place where you host apps in form of plugins. It can be hard to launch them since you have to navigate wp-admin. This adds a dashboard like an mobile phone launcher to your WordPress.
Plugin “Apps” can register their own icons but you can add your own links.
<h3>Code Example</h3>
<pre><code>`php
</code></pre>
add_filter( ‘my_apps_plugins’, function ( $apps ) { 
 // Add your app to the array. These three keys are mandatory: 
 $apps[‘friends’] = array( 
 // Name: The name that will be displayed. 
 ‘name’ => __( ‘Friends’, ‘friends’ ), 
 // The icon as a URL. You can also use a local URL inside a plugin, using <code>plugins_url()</code>. 
 ‘icon_url’ => ‘https://ps.w.org/friends/assets/icon-256×256.png’, 
 // The URL this should link to. 
 ‘url’ => home_url( ‘/friends/’ ), 
 ); 
 return $apps; 
} );

“Why Going Mobile Should Top Your To-Do List”
Did you know? One out of every two consumers makes their latest purchase on a mobile device. That’s a double-take statistic, and online retailers ignore it at their peril. App customers are remarkably loyal to their favorite brands. On average, 55% more so than a typical desktop shopper. Now, eCommerce retailers are beginning to understand the gravity of providing customers with the best possible mobile experience.
Shopgate builds and deploys apps and mobile websites that are in tune with your existing online store strategy. Shopgate apps and websites are adapted to suit the very different needs of Apple and Android devices. Your products should be accessible to as many people as possible, regardless of their personal technology preferences. We provide the ideal, all-in-one solution for merchants who don’t have the resources for expensive in-house development and agency services.
“A Universal Mobile Solution for a World of Business”
Shopgate makes it easy to integrate your store with our platform, which makes it a no-brainer choice for businesses of any size. In just few clicks, all your store’s data, content and products will be migrated to your new mobile versions.
We support all the leading eCommerce platforms, making Shopgate the universally smart solution for businesses that are eager to get mobile—and fast. Also from the “hassle-free” file, Shopgate can easily integrate the payment systems you already use, while offering up-to-the-minute augmentations to keep you competitive. That’s what we call “the best of both worlds.”
“Customized Mobile Tools You Can Bank On”
Individual Branding & Separate Landing Pages Custom design the style of your app, mobile website and landing pages to match your goals and brand image.
Smart Banners: Map to Your App With a simple meta tag you can integrate a smart banner to your mobile website, which intrigues your customers and leads them directly to your mobile app.
Push Notifications Remind Users to Follow Your Path to Conversion We’re all familiar with this phenomenon: You have no intention of shopping today, then, suddenly, your phone alerts you to a half-off-everything sale and you find yourself clicking through with gusto. Shopgate lets you send push notification offers directly to your customer’s smartphone.
Easy Administration and No. New. Downloads. Your Shopgate mobile store may look sophisticated, whimsical, minimal, ornate—anything you like. It’s your brand! But it’s also extremely simple to launch and maintain as your own SaaS solution. Download additional software? No way. This isn’t 2005.
