Custom mobile app (each community can have their own app)

Hi, a facility where people can enhance/customize mobile app (on top of the basic version given by heartbeat) and then manage and publish it on playstores, on their own & at their own cost.
Spayee/Graphy gives this facility. (See the attached screenshot)

    This is actually the most important request as it's super unprofessional asking a community to download an app that looks like a dating app and explaining why it's not called like the community. Also hard for them to find the app again if they don't organize it on their homescreens as the name of the app has nothing to do with the community/creator/brand they signed up for.

    Suggestion: White-labelled Progressive Web Apps (PWA).
    One of the trade-offs for Heartbeat was the importance of instant notifications on mobile. Since Google/Android already supports this, and Apple/iOS will later this year, this trade-off will dissapear and pave the way for Heartbeat to enable this.

    Just a lil bump on this. Heartbeat is still not accessible via the mobile web. Having a PWA or at least just a mobile view would help immensely.

    It would be great if we could customize the app icon for Heartbeat. All we need is the ability to share the app with a custom icon or have the download link include our logo on the icon. This is something that has been done successfully with other apps in the past.

    The app can be used just fine on a mobile without the need to install app. The problem is that it is forcing all users to install the app. Wish that this could be disabled on settings page.

    +1 for this. Having a PWA for our communities would be great, or at least a mobile web view.

    Best for now would be just to allow access from mobile instead of force-installing an app.

    Then people could install as a PWA.

    Yes. Kindly refer: https://www.tagmango.com

    They have come up with an affordable solution for this. But overall as a community platform HB is way better!

    I hope HB comes up with an affordable solution to White labelling and custom apps.

    Yes, something like this, I just got a long email from a member threatening to go through their credit card company for a refund because he thought he was being scammed.😂 '…what is Heartbeat Chat???'

    With 70% of my members using my community through the app I would love to be able to customize the heartbeat app icon to my own branding. I hope this is coming after the team is done rolling out all the mobile updates 🙏🏼
