The selection of 28 shopping cart add-ons, which have been developed by MobiCart, also enables customers to regularly update their databases and can be accessed within the MobiCart admin panel under the ‘Cart Synchronization’ tab, allowing automated synchronization of products and orders between MobiCart and a shopping cart.

New feature: Access to IOS & Android source code

Get ‘sourcey’ with MobiCart

While we strive to bring you as comprehensive a feature set as possible, we understand however, that there are always going to be some features which some of our customers would like that we can’t deliver. This may be because they are are out of scope for us or they are simply too specific or bespoke to individual customer needs.

We know that some of our customers want to have a little more control over the look and feel of their applications.

And, we also know that some of our customers have some very fine engineering skills in house.

MobiCart’s philosophy has always been to provide our customers with a platform on which they can build their business and that is something we want to extend to our nuts and bolts interactions. To this end, MobiCart-pro customers can now get access to the source code for our mobile applications to do with as they will.

Promoting Apps with Smart App Banners

Safari has a new Smart App Banner feature in iOS 6 and later that provides a standardized method of promoting apps on the App Store from a website.

Users will trust that tapping the banner will take them to the App Store and not a third-party advertisement. They will appreciate that banners are presented unobtrusively at the top of a webpage, instead of as a full-screen ad interrupting the web content. And with a large and prominent close button, a banner is easy for users to dismiss.
