Discontinued - PWA Creator - Free Utility (Built on Bubble) 😶

Hi @shu.teopengco,

Basically, if users are viewing your app and they lose connectivity, they will still have the ability to view the cached pages of your site. They unfortunately wouldn’t have the ability to create new data or retrieve from the database unless it’s already been loaded in the background on page load.

Great App @lantzgould , I must say I started working on something similar a few days ago. But you beat me to the punch. I hope you dont mind some healthy competition :ok_hand:

Amazing work…

Thanks so much @AliFarahat! Great minds think alike. I absolutely don’t mind, can’t wait to see your setup! :slight_smile:

So my app has been pending for about 20 mins now, is that normal?

Hi @chad,

I’m working on the script to make it quicker, and more efficient. The ones pending will be available later tonight.

Sorry for the delay! I will post back here after I’ve completed.

All good i deleted and tried again but again pending, explanation above explains it… Thanks again…

p.s I hope your working on notifications… spewing IOS doesn’t offer Push, freaking apple

I wouldnt need to deploy apps at all to appstores if they supported push

Hey @chad, my update is complete.

Your app should have gone through now. Sorry for the wait here.


I’ll update the site tonight that will include a road-map to see what’s coming next.

Mobile notifications are quite the pain, I agree. We’ll have to see if I can pull off a magicians trick here for this. :wink:

Going forward, to reduce costs to me, I have set the script on my site to only run and create new files between 7AM - 11PM (PST) so if something needs fixing, I’m around.

Just getting this not sure if its normal or not

Its ok it seams to have gone away however I have a new question

To change the icon do I need to delete the app and do it again??

Also now when I try to install the version-test app to my desktop it will automatically install the live version… Is there a way around this?

And another issue it appears now that everytime I open the app I need to re log in with facebook

It caches pretty hard, so I’d recommend clearing cache if it happens again. There will be errors in the console, but I think it’s related to Google. I haven’t noticed any impact on my app.

My next version will have the ability for users to edit right in their dashboard, but for now either delete the app and create a new one, or send me the image and I’ll just send you a new Manifest file.

Shouldn’t have this problem, but I use the live url in my setup. Let me do some testing and I’ll get back to you.

I’ve never tried this before. Are users normally signed in always?


Sorry for the bugs, still in beta, and still fine tuning this. :slight_smile:

Hey so the Facebook issue, for some reason the page loads so quick it catches the workflow to show the login pop up which is if ā€œcurrent user isn’t logged inā€ even when they are, I put a one second pause and we are good to go.

Clearing cache worked

I’ll send you the new image when I get a chance do you have an email

Again thanks all lot

I suppose this is a good thing lol…

I’ll send you a PM with my email

Sorry for my noob question. Where should we upload the files? Where is root directory? Maybe a video continuation of your video in your first post?

Hi,

Questions are always welcome! You can upload your files by going to Settings > SEO / metatags > Hosting files in the root directory.

And the scripts will go in the same area. Just copy and paste, (the code in your ā€˜Inbox’ is the one you’ll copy) then deploy. & You should be all set.

I’ll be creating a new video with a full walk-through when version 2.0 is ready. :slight_smile:

Thank you for your response! :grin: I just noticed, there’s no side menu when I login. I’m using mobile (iphone 8plus). Also no email received when I signed up.

Ah yes, Bubble rarely works on mobile for the editor. Also, my app wasn’t mobile optimized since you’ll be dealing with files and copy/pasting code.

No email on sign up. Inside the dashboard, select create new to start your app. After submitting you can find the files and code in your inbox. :slight_smile:

Hi @lantzgould,

First of all… You’re a hero!

Tried the creator and setup the files in the root and the meta tags but my url doesn’t give find manifest file according to my google chrome developer tools.
I cant find the problem…

Hi @klaas.vanhoeck1!

Thank you!

Can you try clearing cache and running a hard reload with the dev tools open? Also make sure you’re not in incognito mode…

P.s. I’ll have a new way to copy and paste so that it formats correctly… Your screenshot made me realize it pastes weirdly inside the editor.

Still no manifest founded… Maybe a problem with the formatting of the body or meta ?

Can you show a screenshot of your root directory files? Or send me a PM with a view-only of the editor link if you’re comfortable with that. Happy to take a look.


Also, I just published documentation for anyone here watching this thread.
