Ever think about building your own app?

Introducing DWNLD. It’s like a WordPress for phones that makes it affordable and easy for any content creator to convert their website or social stream into a personalized app. DWNLD has an an easy-to-use platform and foolproof templates (no coding required) for a monthly hosting fee ($15, cancel at any time).

Once you register, DWNLD can import your web content into its content management system and generate a native app. Typically, rolling out something like this would require a big upfront investment, but DWNLD makes the creation of apps affordable and simple, so that anyone can build one. More importantly, it does this extremely well.

Just enter your site’s URL, and the DWNLD software scours the site and generates a fully functional preview of your app within six seconds. Customize it, then publish the app to the App Store with a tap. (DWNLD’s staff will screen that you own the site, that it’s not pornography or spam, etc.) The longest wait in the process is three to ten days Apple will take to approve your app.

Fashion-industry brands like Milk Studios’ Made Fashion Week and model/personality Coco Rocha have been early adopters, and DWNLD is also being used by actress Kristin Cavallari, model Molly Sims, web magazine xoJane, and about 200 others. And you don’t have to be famous to reap DWNLD’s benefit. Imagine going into a job interview and having all the great content you’ve produced in one, mobile place.

The beauty of DWNLD is that its final products feel as sophisticated as those designed by major companies with millions of dollars to spend.

Right now, DWNLD only lets customers build iOS apps, but it’s working on an Android solution.
