Why Every Shopify Store Needs a Mobile App in 2025 – And How Appify Makes It Easy

How Appify Makes It Easy

In 2025, mobile commerce isn't just the future—it's the present. If you're running a Shopify store, you've likely noticed the shift. More customers are shopping from their phones than ever before. But here's the thing: having a mobile-friendly website is no longer enough. Shoppers expect the speed, ease, and personalization that only a mobile app can deliver. Enter Appify—the no-code mobile app builder designed specifically for Shopify. In this blog, we'll break down why having a mobile app is essential, how Appify works, and why it’s the perfect choice for Shopify merchants who want to grow faster without complexity.

Why Mobile Apps Matter More Than Ever in 2025

Let’s start with the facts. Mobile usage has skyrocketed. In 2025:

  • Over 75% of ecommerce purchases happen on mobile devices.
  • Consumers spend 88% of their mobile time inside apps, not browsers.
  • Push notifications have 12x higher engagement than email marketing.
  • Brands with apps see 3x more customer loyalty.

What does this mean for your Shopify store? Simply put: if you don’t have a mobile app, you’re leaving money on the table.

Apps are faster, more personal, and easier to use than websites. Customers can browse, buy, and check out in seconds. And with features like saved carts, one-tap reorders, and instant alerts, apps keep people coming back.
