Question 1

What is the difference between a native app and a hybrid app?

Accepted Answer

A native app is built specifically for Android using technologies like Kotlin or Java, which means faster performance, better design, and deeper integration with Android features. A hybrid app uses WebView to wrap your existing website — it works well, but isn’t as fast or responsive as a native app.

Question 2

Why is the native app more expensive than the hybrid app?

Accepted Answer

Native apps require more development time, testing, and maintenance. We build your app using the Android SDK, handle complex integrations, and ensure compatibility with the latest Android versions — that’s why it's priced higher compared to the  hybrid app.

Question 3

Will my Shoopy store work the same in the native app?

Accepted Answer

Yes, all your Shoopy products, categories, cart, checkout, and payment options will work seamlessly in the native app — with faster speed and a better mobile experience. However, some component such as custom html used in Shoopy store will be rendered as webview inside app.

Question 4

What happens if Google updates their Play Store policies?

Accepted Answer

Shoopy monitors Google’s policy changes and handles all required app updates to ensure your app remains live, compliant, and functional. You don't have to worry about rejections or removals.

Question 5

Do I need a Google Play Developer account?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you need to create your own Play Store Developer Account (one-time fee of $25). We’ll guide you through the process and handle the rest.

Question 6

What kind of support is included in the yearly plan?

Accepted Answer

You get:
 • Regular updates for Android OS compatibility
 • Bug fixes and app performance improvements
 • Help with re-submissions and Play Store policy compliance
 • Timely reminders for renewals and app listing requirements

Question 7

Can I upgrade from a hybrid app to a native app later?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! If you start with our hybrid app and want to switch to native later, we’ll offer a smooth upgrade path. Just contact our support team.

Question 8

How long does it take to publish my native app?

Accepted Answer

Once you share your brand assets and approve the design, the native app is usually ready and submitted to Google within 7–10 working days.
