E-Commerce Apps That Turn Browsers Into Repeat Buyers
SkySol Media provides ecommerce mobile app development in Lahore for retailers and brands whose customers already shop on their phones. We turn your online store into a real app on Google Play and the App Store, connected to your products, payments and orders, and submitted under your own accounts.
A mobile website waits to be found. An app sits on the home screen, one tap away, and speaks through notifications instead of hoping customers remember your address. For COD-first shoppers who found you on Instagram, Facebook or Daraz, that is where repeat orders come from.
Every package is built around your real setup. The app connects to your existing Shopify or WooCommerce store, or to a custom backend in Gold. You choose cross-platform or native with honest advice from us, and pay once in PKR: no monthly app-builder rent, no lock-in.

Why Shoppers Prefer Buying Inside an App
Pakistani shopping has moved to the phone. Your customers compare prices on Daraz at midnight, order through WhatsApp at lunch, and expect your store to feel just as easy.
Your website waits to be visited. Your app asks to be opened, every single day.
Everything Your App Includes, Piece by Piece
One app, connected to the store you already run. Here is what is built into every package, in plain words, before the package differences even start.
Store connection and live catalogue. The app connects to your existing Shopify or WooCommerce store, so products, prices and stock stay in one place. In Gold, a custom backend with an analytics dashboard is built instead.
Product pages that sell. Clean categories, photo-led product pages, sizes and colour variants, prices in rupees, laid out for thumbs.
Cart and checkout built for COD. A short, familiar checkout with cash on delivery at the front, the payment your customers already trust.
Your payment gateway, connected. One gateway of your choice is connected and tested in Bronze. Your gateway account and its charges stay yours.
Order tracking inside the app. Customers follow their order from confirmation to delivery without messaging your team on WhatsApp for every update.
Push notifications. Order updates your customers need, and offers they will actually see: new arrivals, restocks and sale alerts on their lock screens.
Admin panel. Manage products, prices, categories and orders without touching code, the way your team already runs the store.
Store submission. Listings prepared and submitted to Google Play and the App Store under your own developer accounts, with review questions handled alongside you.
Cross-Platform or Native? The Honest Difference
This is the decision your whole package turns on, so here it is without sales talk. Both routes give your customers a real app on both stores.
Cross-platform (Flutter), Bronze
What it means. One codebase, written once, runs on both iPhone and Android. Modern Flutter apps look and feel like the apps your customers already use, and one codebase keeps build costs lower and updates faster.
Who it suits. Most single stores launching their first app, and any brand that wants both platforms on a sensible budget.
Native (Swift and Kotlin), Silver and Gold
What it means. Two separate apps, each written in its platform's own language. The smoothest performance, offline support for browsing and saved carts, and advanced search and filters for large catalogues.
Who it suits. Growing stores with heavy traffic, big catalogues, or customers who shop where connections drop often.
Our advice is written down before you pay. If cross-platform covers your plans, we will tell you to buy Bronze, not native. Native earns its price only when performance, offline use or catalogue size demands it.
From Your Store to the App Stores, In Six Steps
A fixed order, followed on every build, whether it is a first Flutter app for a Lahore boutique or a native build for a national retailer.
Discover and Plan
We map your store, catalogue and customers, agree the features and build type, and put scope and timeline in writing before work starts.
Design
Screens are designed around your brand, product photos and prices in rupees; you approve the key screens before coding starts.
Build
The app is built and connected to your store: catalogue, cart, COD and gateway payments, order tracking and push notifications.
Test on Real Phones
Tested on the mid-range Android phones your customers actually carry, and on iPhones, on fast and slow connections, with real test orders.
Submit to the Stores
Listings, screenshots and store policies are prepared, and the app is submitted under your own developer accounts. Review questions are handled with you.
Launch and Support
Launch week checks on orders and notifications, support for the period your package includes (60 days in Gold), and a clear path for later updates.
The same care launches a national marketplace app and a single boutique's first app.

- Prices in PKR agreed in writing, one-off
- Your store, your accounts, your app, no lock-in
Is an App Right for Your Store?
An app is a serious investment, and not the right next step for every shop. Here is who it pays back, and who should wait.
This is for you if
- Your store already sells through its website, Instagram or WhatsApp
- Most of your traffic and orders already come from phones
- Customers buy from you more than once
- You run offers and drops you want to push to customers directly
- You sell on Daraz or social media and want a channel you own
This is not for you if
- Your store is brand new and has no orders yet (a good mobile website comes first)
- You sell one or two products only occasionally
- You expect the app to bring customers by itself (it converts the audience you have; marketing still matters)
- Nobody on your side can approve screens and store details during the build
Apps for the Way Pakistan Shops
The Toolkits and Connections Behind Your App
Proven technology, chosen per package, always in accounts you own. Tools such as:
What We Need From You
Six things, most of which you already have. Accounts stay in your name throughout.
Store access. Your Shopify or WooCommerce admin, or your product data if Gold's custom backend is being built.
Developer accounts. Your own Apple Developer and Google Play accounts. Their fees are paid by you to Apple and Google; we guide the sign-up.
Brand kit. Your logo, colours and any product photography you already use.
Product data. Names, prices, photos and stock for the launch catalogue, in whatever format you keep them.
Payment accounts. Your gateway details and a short note on how your COD and delivery process runs today.
One decision maker. Someone who can approve screens and answer store review questions quickly, so the launch never waits.
Questions, Before You Commit
Cross-platform or native, which should I choose?
Cross-platform (Bronze) builds one Flutter codebase for both iPhone and Android: faster to launch, lower cost, right for most stores. Native (Silver and Gold) means separate apps in each platform's own language, with the smoothest performance, offline support and advanced search. We advise in writing after seeing your store, and will not sell you native if cross-platform does the job.
Do I need my own Apple and Google developer accounts?
Yes, deliberately: the app is submitted under your accounts, so you own it outright. Google charges a one-time registration fee and Apple a yearly fee, both paid by you directly to them. We guide the sign-up and handle the submission itself.
I already sell on Shopify or WooCommerce. Does the app connect?
Yes. The app connects to your existing store, so products, prices, stock and orders stay in one place and your team changes nothing about how it works today. In Gold, where a custom setup is needed, we build the backend and dashboard instead.
How do payments work in the app?
Cash on delivery is built in from the start, because that is how most Pakistani shoppers pay. Bronze also connects one gateway of your choice for cards or wallets. Your gateway account and its charges are yours; we connect it and test real orders with you.
How long does an app take to build?
It depends on the package and your catalogue size, and we agree a written timeline at the planning stage, before the build starts. Store review is Apple's and Google's step, not ours; most reviews complete within days, and we handle their questions with you.
Who owns the app and the code?
You do. The app, the store listings and the developer accounts are in your name, submitted under your accounts. There is no rental or lock-in: if you ever change teams, everything goes with you.
What can I manage in the admin panel?
Products, prices, categories, orders and notifications, without touching code. Your team keeps running the store as it does today, and the app stays in sync.
Will you submit the app to Google Play and the App Store?
Yes, submission is included in every package. We prepare the listings, screenshots and policies the stores require, submit under your accounts, and work through review questions until the app is live.
What is not included in this service?
Apple and Google account fees, gateway charges, product photography, and features beyond your package are not included. Maintenance after your package's support window is a separate plan, quoted honestly if you want it.
How do we order and pay?
Choose your package and order online, then pay later through our confirmed payment process in PKR. Work starts once we have your store access, developer accounts and brand files, and the plan is agreed in writing.
Put Your Store on Every Home Screen
Your customers already shop on their phones. Give them your app instead of your competitor's, with the plan in writing before we build a screen.
Order now, pay later. One-off pricing in PKR, no hidden charges.
