# Downloads app

### How to create a downloads app using your website?

You can create an app for downloading games, movies, pictures, and more by using your existing website. The app will load your site in advanced web-views, while the custom app product powers native features.

#### **Step 1: Prepare your website**

* Make sure your website already supports downloads for the content you want to offer.
* Keep download sections clearly labeled on your site for easy in-app navigation.

#### **Step 2: Create your app**

* Sign in and [**create a new app**](/getting-started/create-an-app.md).
* Select the custom app product for this project.

#### **Step 3: Set navigation**

* Add your web-view screens to the [**side menu**](/app/navigation/menu/custom-app-menu.md) or [**bottom navigation**](/app/navigation/bottom-bar/custom-app-bottom-bar.md).

#### **Step 3: Add advanced web-views**

* Add [**advanced web-views**](/app/web-view/web-view-for-custom-app.md) for your website’s key download sections.

#### **Step 4: Configure native features**

* Enable push notifications to share updates.
* Turn on analytics to track usage.
* Set up chat if you want to support users in the app.
* Add pages and posts for announcements or help content.

#### **Step 6: Review and publish**

* [**Test your app**](/app/preview/preview-app.md) to ensure all actions work as expected.
* [**Submit your app**](/app/download.md) for publishing.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.appmysite.com/frequently-asked-questions/solutions/downloads-app.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
