# 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.
