## Frequently Asked Questions

+

### Which Sharetribe subscription plan do I need to run a mobile app?

That depends on how you choose to build your mobile app! If you use Twinr’s no-code mobile app wrapper, you need to have a live Sharetribe plan to launch ([Lite, Pro, Extend](/pricing/)). If you use Journeyhorizon’s mobile app template or build a mobile app from scratch, you need a [Sharetribe Extend subscription](/pricing/) to run the mobile app. However, you can build and test the app on the Build plan. You only need to subscribe to Extend to make your marketplace app live to real users.

+

### How is a mobile app different from the mobile-compatible website that comes with my Sharetribe account?

Your Sharetribe marketplace website is optimized for all devices, from mobile to desktop, by default. The website must be accessed via a web browser regardless of the device used. The mobile app template helps your marketplace become a native mobile application hosted and downloaded through an app store (Google Play Store for Android and iOS App Store for Apple devices). Beyond the different experiences (download vs. browser), a mobile app can take advantage of mobile-native functionalities, such as push notifications.

+

### What does third-party mean?

Third-party means _not_ Sharetribe. In this case, third-party highlights that the mobile app codebase is built, implemented, maintained, and upgraded by a team outside of Sharetribe.

+
