How to create an app for online courses
Written by Angelina Casanova on Thursday 13 January 2022
Society evolves through a digitalized and permanently connected environment. Speed and progress are the keywords of the 21st century, where information is consumed everywhere and all the time thanks to the internet. Many sectors have had to reinvent themselves in order to adapt to these changes, such as the press and radio.
This is also the case for education: classic courses become boring or uninteresting. Compared to the attractiveness of the screens and the numerous contents they offer, most of the courses are no longer adequate with the evolution of society.
Learning methods must adapt to these changes, and digital courses are becoming more and more popular! This is why offering an online course app has many advantages: It is a format adapted to all profiles, depending on the age of your target, and your learning field. Creating an app will allow you to differentiate yourself by upsetting traditional methods thanks to diversified types of content!
In this article, we'll show you how to make an app by following a few easy steps following the examples of 3 apps: Learn&Fun, Fast Piano and Lotus Yoga.

Responding to the #1 Sales Rejection : It's too Expensive!
Written by Christophe Spinetti on Friday 17 December 2021
One of the biggest challenges agencies face is managing to convince certain clients that a mobile application is a worthwhile financial investment. For small businesses with limited funds, an app is not considered a necessity for their business strategy, but more of an expendable luxury. How do you convince your audience that they really need an app, even if the cost seems too high?
1. A reasonable investment
2. An optimal return on investment
How to create an app for a Radio station
Written by Muriel Santoni on Tuesday 14 December 2021
Like the press, radio is a medium that has been facing a profound shift in usage in recent years. Their distribution and monetization models have been turned upside down.
Radio has the advantage of being a media that can be consumed everywhere and that is not exclusive: it is largely possible to listen to a radio station or a podcast while practicing an activity on the side. Moreover, since 2017, the cell phone has become the first screen to surf on radio and music websites and applications. The stations have really digitized their offers and it's not for nothing.
At the same time, streaming radio and podcasting consumption habits are becoming more and more significant. Offering an app for your radio will allow you to stay close to your listeners and of course to convince new ones. It will allow you to explore new ways of communication and to diversify your content types.
If you’re new and never created an app before, we share our best tips on how to make an app following a few keys steps and other best practices in our blog,
App Store Connect remains open during the holiday period
Written by Marie Pireddu on Monday 13 December 2021
Good news!
This year, Apple won’t be closing down the App Store to developer submissions over the holidays, as it has in previous years. This marks the first time Apple has kept the App Store Connect platform open through the holiday season. For example, last year, App Store Connect was closed from December 23rd to December 27th.
This is great news for developers who can keep submitting new apps or updates.
However, Apple does warm that during this busy time, reviews might take longer.
For your GoodBarber iOS app, we do recommend to have your app ready for submission before December 23rd to avoid any delays in your publication.
This applies to apps distributed to the general public on the App Store, and to Custom Apps distributed via Apple Business Manager.
If your iOS app is distributed internally outside of the App Store via an Enterprise account, this has no impact for you
Our website is now available in German and Dutch!

We have some exciting news! The GoodBarber website is now available in German and Dutch !
Our large community of users in Germany and the Netherland was already enjoying having their back office and apps in their respective languages, and now our website follows.
While we know that Germans and Dutch have a lot of facilities with the English language, we wanted to offer an even more pleasant user experience, so it seemed important to us that the GoodBarber website exists in both these languages.
GoodBarber's website is now in 7 languages: English, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, German, and Dutch.

Cyber Monday - How to stand out with your Shopping App
Written by Marie Pireddu on Wednesday 24 November 2021
Cyber Monday is the biggest day for online shopping and it’s right around the corner.
What used to be a day for tech and electronics is now for every eCommerce and is part of a weekend (BFCM) which marks the start of the holiday shopping season
In 2020, amid COVID -19 concerns, shoppers chose to shop online more than ever and Cyber week broke all e-Commerce records.
According to Adobe, a record $10.8 billion was spent online by the end of Cyber Monday, an increase of 15.1 % YoY, making it the largest online shopping day in U.S. history and beating last year’s $9.4 billion record. What’s more is smartphones accounted for 41.1 percent of revenue during the five-day period, up 7.4 % year over year.
So how do you stand out in the crowd and compete with the big deals from the big brands?
Think mobile-first. If you are just starting as an eCommerce with your GoodBarber Shopping, it is a great time to make your entrance on the market as more and more customers are turning to their mobile to complete their holiday shopping.
Your Shopping App gives you an edge over other retailers. Retailers who have a Shopping App register 3X more conversions than their website.

Written by Mathéa Pellé on Wednesday 17 November 2021
This November 14, 2021, GoodBarber celebrated its 10th anniversary, just like the release of the iPhone 4s, the birth of Siri, the birth of iCloud or the beginning of 4G in France.

It's time to look back at the creation of GoodBarber and these 10 years of adventure.
How to Pitch an App
Written by Christophe Spinetti on Monday 15 November 2021
As an expert and app reseller, you must be ready at all times to respond to the solicitation of a potential lead, or a future contributor. Whether in a public or private setting, you should regularly have a pitch ready for any eventuality. The best is to have a proven pitch for different situations.
So the principle of the pitch is simple. The goal is to prove in a few minutes the interest and the merits of your product or service. Whether it's for your current business or for a business in creation. The original name is "Elevator pitch" to illustrate the fact that your speech must fit in a time frame as short as an elevator ride.
And the shorter the pitch, the more specific it should be. In this article, we'll try to be exhaustive, so you'll have to pick and choose from the information we give you to build (and test...) the best pitch possible.

How to create an app for Newspapers
Written by Muriel Santoni on Saturday 30 October 2021
The world of the press has evolved considerably in recent decades. The consumption of information is now constant, 7 days a week and 24 hours a day. In the 21st century, readers need to be informed in real-time of the news on subjects that interest or concern them. And all they need is a smartphone and news apps. It's a far cry from the days when people waited impatiently for the morning press to get the latest news.
Beyond retaining existing readers, offering an app will allow you to get new readers and therefore increase your revenues, like the famous newspaper The Guardian which explained in a 2019 report that it gets 29% of its revenues from the users of its mobile application Guardian.
Therefore, a good news app should not be a simple news aggregator. It must be as attractive as social networks, offer high-quality content quickly, and offer new ways of monetization to its owners: you would appreciate our suggestions regarding how to make an app easily and efficiently
To satisfy the needs of today's consumers, as a media company, you need to build an app to broadcast your news in real-time .
