appsbar ® is free (to all users). Free to create an App, free to Publish an App, free to access appsbar ® , just Free. In other words, it is …. free, zero cost, nada, no hidden fees, free.
“It takes a village”…as they say.
You’ve created your app and submitted it for publishing. Now what?
The development team from appsbar® will further enhance your app to ensure it has all the necessary functionality, capabilities, and features required by major app market publishing guidelines. Many of the major app markets are concerned with a lot of technical stuff that we take care of in the background so that you can enjoy your app building experience.
You see, appsbar® is much more than an app builder and publisher. appsbar® is backed by a team of developers, whose only mission is to ensure you have a functional, creative, and innovative app to introduce to the world.
To ultimately get an app published it takes a thorough review from an appsbar® development team member who understands the stringent requirements that are in place by the major app markets to ensure great apps are being published. Then, once we are satisfied that your app has the best chance of getting published, we then publish it to Appcatch and give you the ability to publish it to other major app markets.
So, what does all this mean to you? It means that we will review the app, make any required technical changes, offer suggestions to enhance your app, as needed, and be available to assist you in any way necessary to get your app published.
Both, our personal attention to each app submitted for review and our commitment to making each app the best it can be, are just some of what makes appsbar ® so unique (and awesome)!
And, best of all….it is all FREE.
Okay, we had to throw this in here because someone will ask! An app is short for “Application”. APPs are created for different uses: playing games, reading a book, checking a restaurant’s menus, news updates, even learning how to tie your shoe (well maybe not, but there might be an App for that)! appsbar® allows you to create any APP (to do whatever you want it to do) and then allows you to share it with the world! AND, it is super easy....
This is serious and we are not kidding around on this one – appsbar® users must be 13 or older, period (even though we write the instructions for a 6 year old). Not kidding....13 or older!
To make apps accessible to all. You get to create, share and be yourself. You will not have to pay now or later. This is truly to give all of the world access to creating your very own, uniquely yours - App!
Seriously, not long...like 20 minutes for a simple App...a little longer if you are creating forms or a menu and are inputting a lot of information. However, it is crazy simple!!!!
Why wouldn’t you finish?? Just kidding…technically you don’t have to finish an app during the same session in which you start it but don’t worry, it will be waiting in your account for you to complete the next time you login. But don’t wait too long – we are eager to share your app with the world
Yes, once you “publish” your App it will be available to the world (or your friends) in approximately 3-5 days. (Yep, still FREE)
Your App, once submitted, is reviewed for “appropriateness” (that means “doing the right thing”). Most will be published in 3-5 days and then you can announce it to all your friends, clients, Facebook fans, Twitter followers, create a video on YouTube, or share with Google Plus, Pinterest, Stumble Upon, Delicious, Reddit, MySpace and all other social networks.
We want to make sure that your app is of the best quality possible and meets the publishing guidelines of the major app markets. First, we have our quality assurance experts (developers) review the app to ensure it meets the guidelines of the respective app store. Once it does, then we send it off for publishing (see “How does my app get published?” for all the details). This process may take 3-5 business days depending on what is required.
Then we publish it to Appcatch and give you the ability to publish it to other major app markets.
We will keep you up-to-date about your app’s progress by email, so watch your inbox!
We know we already answered this, but we know it is unbelievable, after all, remember the old adage, “If it’s too good to be true...”. Well, guess what, we are going to be the ones that turns that saying upside down. Using appsbar® to create and publish unlimited APPs is FREE, seriously, no strings attached. Free, in every language, FREE
It typically takes about 3-5 days in order for your app to get through the review process. It then takes about 3-5 days in order to make it through the publishing phase.
We keep you updated on your app’s progression through each phase both through email and through your account. Your app status can be seen in the App Manager page of your account. Once you see your app’s Appcatch icon turn orange in your account, your app is available for download in Appcatch – the fastest growing app market in the world!

We are happy to say, this part is easy. Just create your login, read our Terms of Service, and begin. “Digi” (our wizard) walks you through creating your app...step by step.

Better yet, we offer additional help screens:

The appsbar commerce capability is done in accordance the 'menu' module. After you've activated your app's commerce status, you'll be prompted to edit your commerce settings. You'll then use a 'menu' module (page) to showcase the items/services you'd like to sell. Once you've selected a 'menu' module, adding a page name and page icon, you'll select the 'product' layout. This will enable you to upload images, set pricing, description, etc. When a user downloads the app, they will see the products/services available on the 'menu' module you've created. This will allow them to make their choice and select the quantity. The transaction is reviewed, approved and completed through the shopping cart. You subsequently receive an email from PayPal of the order and a notification inside your account on the details of the order.
