Native Mobile App

Help in your pocket — a performant mobile directory for iOS and Android.

A lightweight version of our Online Resource Directory, the Mobile App delivers native performance and uses onboard GPS to find help nearby.

Branded for your organization and deployed to the App Store and Google Play.

Native help-seeking on the go.

How it works.

Ship a native app that stays in sync with the directory experience you already configure on the web.

  1. Brand the app for your organization

    Present a native experience that matches your public directory identity — not a generic third-party app shell.

  2. Stay synced with the web directory

    Configuration and settings pair with your Online Resource Directory so mobile and web do not drift into two products.

  3. Deploy to the app stores

    Publish to the App Store and Google Play so tech-savvy audiences can download help-seeking the way they already use their phones.

Features

A focused mobile feature set for finding help nearby — fast.

  • Use My Location

    Search for resources in the user’s area with onboard GPS.

  • Topic / guided search

    Help users navigate resources with guided pathways instead of a blank search box.

  • Web directory sync

    Pairs with the web-based Resource Directory so configuration and settings stay aligned.

  • Optional chat link

    Add a link to integrate your existing chat solution when your audience needs a live handoff.

Who it’s for.

Best when your audience expects a native app — and you already (or soon will) run a web Resource Directory.

Customize to your organization.

Keep mobile lightweight — and still unmistakably yours.

  • Brand the app for your organization before App Store and Google Play deployment.
  • Reuse web Resource Directory configuration so mobile stays in sync automatically.
  • Optionally surface a link into your existing chat solution.
  • Present a lighter feature set than the full web directory — fast, focused, GPS-aware.
