RELEASE 5
Happy to tell that the template is now fully multilingual with dynamic texts on all elements!
I have finished translating it to Spanish! Itās a bit rusty, so had help from Google Translate so I hope you can forgive the funny phrases
They are easy to correct in the languages tab.
Also, the template have been getting a serious round of UI and UX fine tuning adding a minimal theme, better galleries and more UX elements.
And, the menu and header reusable elements are now replaced with floating groups, making the template much faster and workflows simper.
Remember to write the things you would like added here

RELEASE 7
We are happy to present release 7 of the Powerful Native & PWA Template !
The version number is bumped up, as it now co-features a solid Manifest, Service Worker and Offline fallback page. This makes it a lot easier to submit to the native stores as a PWA!
As Bubble does not allow files hosted in the root directory to be copied over in temples yet (we are pushing them as much as we can to add the feature), we have added a guide to the documentation and the files can be downloaded here:
Download the manifest: manifest.json
Download the service worker: sw.js
Download the offline fallback page: offline.html
Try it on Google Play and the Microsoft Store. Itās not on iOS App Store yet as Apple requires it to be more than an example / template. We will add an iOS App Store example of a commercial app build on top of the template once it is launched after Christmas.
Template improvements
Introducing the new elements and predesigned pages
(A should be B, and B should be A )
Explaining states
Along with additional guides, we have added a section to the template documentation (Codeless Native / Nativekit) explaining how states are used and how different views and displayed. In short, the state āPageā on INDEX controls:
A decent mark-up over hard code native development
If you are a developer or agency making native apps for others, using Bubble and this template will give you a considerable hours spent advantage compared to conventional hard-code app development.
With 50-100 hours saved from the template, mock-ups made directly in Bubble instead of Figma / Sketch, faster iteration speed, more stable apps and easier bug-fixing with Bubble, you can get a 1.5x - 3x higher mark-up. Think about that for a second.
But please do not charge less for equal or better quality apps compared to hard code developers. It will undermine the industry.
MARCH UPDATE 1
A lot of improvementās this month, here is the list of changes:
Paid plugin replaced with free
The plugin Repeating Group Visibility Detector is now replace with the free plugin Visibility Detector reducing the monthly plug-in price of the entire template to 2 USD.
Whitelabel mobile previewer
When you preview an app based on the template, the previewer comes without any āCodeless Nativeā branding. Itās perfect for showcasing it to desktop users or present you development progress to your client. Also, taking great screenshots of your web app has never been easier.
Improved UX, look and feel
We have made several improvements to the login screens, onboarding flow, context menu, messaging view and predesigned pages. To mention a few things:
Journal & Daily Log
A new predesigned pages that enables users to write journal entries in a vertical timeline with a smooth layout and deletable and editable entires.
New content
MARCH UPDATE 2
A couple of improvements to the Mobius Mobile & PWA Template this week.
Added full vector logo - easy to modify - and placeholder for your own raster logo. Also, additional look and feel improvements to the sign in screen.
A UX overhaul of the āAdd newā screen to the home feed. It now has tabs and much better input UI making it a better base for your own screens and the overall look and feel.
Added some initial BDK workflows. Having them pre-installed and pre-tested will make it easier to wrap your app and publish it to the stores. Many more to come!
Renamed to āMobius Mobile & PWA Templateā
My screen is black in live mode, on mobile and desktop ? With this Theme , a have my own custom domain
Hi neighbor (@tradspecialisterna)
My guess is that you havenāt copied your data from you version-test to your live version - Specifically the onboarding data. The onboarding screenās background color is black which is probably what you are seeing without it.
Go to your data tab and choose app data, then copy and restore database
Hi ! No a have not copy o something with the data. Is it maybe something a have miss with change the url ?in the workflows A donāt now ā¦ can not find it ā¦ my scary is totally black need to fix this do a have done a lot of work here!
Did you get the data copied over? Works?
Yes , it works now
MARCH UPDATE 3
Some additions and improvements to the Mobius Mobile & PWA Template this week.
Added the new predesigned page: Calendar date selector which allows you to choose a date from a range of available days in a calendar layout.
Improved element structure and simplicity by collecting VIEWS and PAGES in single groups making it easier to see what is where in the elements tree.
Improved onboarding with swipe-to-hide and scroll animations when clicking the next button for an even smoother experience.
Based on the Mobius - Mobile & PWA Template, the iOS app: MentaltrƦning PRO (danish) was released today as the successor to the 12 years Old hardcoded version - A popular mental training and meditation app with more 100.000+ downloads and 10.000+ paying users.
Test it out in the app stores: Apple App Store, Google Play.
APRIL UPDATE 1
We added updates to the welcome, log in and create account screens in the Mobius - Mobile & PWA Template this week. The screens are now on level - functionality and UX wise - with most mobile log in screens.
The welcome screen now have social login icons and workflows. Just add your personal API keys to the plug- ins to enable them.
The log in screen now have a bg image and conditional logic disabling the log in button when the input fields are empty.
The create account screen now also have a bg image and conditional logic in addition to an opt -in check box for accepting the app terms and privacy policy.
Hello @login, when an app is published on an App Store, the store handles payment and customer subscription management. Iām trying to understand how to integrate this data into Bubble using the Mobius Template. My question is: Does the Mobius Template include all necessary workflows, APIs, data types, and app data for seamless integration with the App Storeās payment and subscription data?
Hi Elena
Relevant question.
I have not setup actual payment workflows in the template, but prepared it for subscriptions by adding a submenu to the context menu and a field on the user representing the subscription type. Very simple.
The reason for not setting up the payment flows is that they very a lot from individual use cases, but I have added to the top of my list of things to add!
User variable:
If you use BDK to wrap the app to the stores (recommended as they provide the best wrapper, plug-ins and charges a one-time fee), then add the BN purchase workflow to where ever you want it. See example in the context menu:
Create a iOS Developer account and get you KEY from there and add your products to get a product code for the individual purchases. Its a good idea to save the payment receipt in your database. The BDK have support articles and documentation on this: BDK Native Plugin Documentation (notion.site)
Thank you for your answer, it really helps!
WHAT IS THIS ā¦
Now I have been working on a project for a long time. Felt ready and followed all the directions. As well as also bought BDK native and done everything now that the App is approved by the Appstore, Fullscreen disappear ? in the app what is this ?
Cool, well done getting it approved and published. I am not sure exactly what you mean, but send me a link to the store listing and I can have a look at it.
Are you testing it in BDK preflight?
The BDK wrapper have a top notch area whichās color can changed, but not removed or set set the alpha on yet. I know that Gaurav from the BDK is working on this. Is this what you are referring to?
It will be completely full screen if you wrap yourself with pwabuilder.com.
Till the fix is implemented in BDK we have to do with the top area.
Alternatively the CSS may be the problem.
In test flight it was full screen and so niceā¦ but when it publish on app store its goneā¦ Now the heding is therā¦
Thatās the BDK header as described. It sucks that it canāt be removed yet. Itās part of the base jasonelle framework used by BDK. Again, it know he has it on his to do of features to be implemented.
What you can do is change the color using the BDK plugin and āBN change colorā¦ā element. Try it out, it may be a good idea on some of you pages that not black.
This trick to accommodate for it, is to add a buffer on the top of the page or margin to your content. Eg. The close button.
+1 @gaurav (heās working overtime so be kind)
Hi all
We hope you are looking forward to Christmas! We are.
We will be updating the template before the holidays here in Denmark.
A couple of things to mention:
The Natively wrapper has come a long way and supports fullscreen view, advanced debugging as well as almost any possible feature needed on native devices for Bubble apps.
The team continues to update and improve the service which is by far the easiest to use. Eg. direct build submission to the app stores and easy testing in TestFlight and on Android.
We are confident in recommending it to anyone using or intending to use the Mobius Template and they are now recommending the template as a good place to start building from as well.
We have market tested it, and will be releasing new demo versions on TestFlight (App Store) and Google Play of the template to try on your own device.
We will also be releasing our own new app Roamio: Location-based audio stories anywhere, build on the template and using Natively before the end of January.
This means that 1. The template workflows are now updated, and 2. We will be implementing more workflows and native features the coming week. In this regard, make sure to PM suggestions and tips for fixes.
Cheers
