Migrating to Appbrew

Thank you for choosing to migrate your app to Appbrew. This guide will walk you through the process to ensure a smooth transition for you and your users.

User Experience

• Users can easily migrate to the new app by updating their current app from the App Store (iOS) or Play Store (Android), where they will receive prompts for the new version.

• The migration process typically takes 3-4 weeks for active users, with the duration potentially varying based on audience size.

Technical Requirements

Android

• We require the Android signing keys from your previous app builder to ensure a smooth transition.

• If these keys are not available, we can assist in resetting them, although this may extend the transition period.

Accelerating User Migration

Banners & Promotions:

• Implement banners within the old app to inform users about the migration to the new app with enhanced features. These banners can be linked to the App store/Play store

• Consider offering incentives such as discounts or special offers to encourage users to transition.

Push Notifications:

• Send regular push notifications to users of the previous app version, encouraging them to update to the new version.

• Ensure notifications are informative and highlight the benefits of the new app experience.

Email/SMS Campaigns:

• Utilize email and SMS communications to directly reach existing app users, guiding them through the migration process.

• Provide clear instructions and emphasize the advantages of updating to the new app.
