# Food delivery app

### How to create a food delivery app?

You can easily turn your food delivery website into a mobile app with AppMySite. The app syncs directly with your website, ensuring that your customers can browse menus, place orders, and make payments seamlessly on their mobile devices. This allows you to expand your reach and offer a convenient way for customers to order food on the go.

#### Step 1: Create a new app

* Go to the[ **create app**](https://app.appmysite.com/app/create) screen.
* Enter a name that represents your food delivery business.
* Select the product type that matches your website setup (for example, WooCommerce app, Shopify app, or Web to app).
* Add your website link to establish a connection between your app and website.

#### Step 2: Customize app appearance

* Upload an [**app icon**](/app/design/app-icon.md#how-to-design-an-app-icon) that reflects your brand.
* Add a [**splash screen**](/app/design/splash-screen/design-splash-screen.md) to display while the app loads.
* Choose a [**color scheme**](/app/design/theme/color-scheme.md) and fonts to align with your restaurant branding.

#### Step 3: [Configure navigation](/app/navigation.md)

* Add essential menu items such as Home, Menu, Cart, Orders, and Profile in the bottom bar or side menu.
* Set the default landing screen to highlight your restaurant menu or food categories.

#### Step 4: Add advanced features

* Enable features like [**in-app chat**](/app/chat/integrate-chat.md) for customer support.
* Set up [**push notifications**](/app/notifications/notification-configuration.md) to send updates about new menu items, offers, and order status.
* Add other advanced features that improve customer engagement and convenience.

#### Step 5: Test your app

* [**Use the preview** ](/app/preview/preview-app.md)option to test the ordering flow.
* Confirm that users can browse food items, add them to cart, and complete orders successfully.

#### Step 6: Publish your app

* Once setup is complete, build your [**Android**](/app/download/android.md) and [**iOS apps**](/app/download/ios.md).
* [**Submit**](/app/upload.md) them to the respective app stores for publishing.
