What is Magento Progressive Web App?

The Magento Progressive Web Apps (PWA) combine the pluses of the mobile web and native apps to create state-of-the-art technology. When the customers visit the site for the first time, they will be invited to use the Progressive Web App by adding it to their homescreen – just one click, no complicated installation required. Then, it will open a door of great experience with the accelerated loading speed, even on the flaky network, useful push notifications, instant access on homescreen, and so on. Needless to say, the PWA is a perfect solution for Magento store owners to drive shopper engagement and revenue.

Quickly Add To Homescreen

Once the shoppers visit your store for the first time on their mobile, they will be prompted to add a shortcut to their homescreen instantly to access your Magento Progressive Web App. After that, they will have a chance to experience the app-like look and full-screen mode – without the distraction of the URL bar. Compared to persuading them to install a native app, it would be much easier to earn a place on the buyers’ homescreen, right?



Engaging Push Notifications

With this amazing feature, you can engage and draw customers’ attention even when their browser is closed. You can easily notify your buyers of your promotional campaigns, introduce your latest products and simply remind you to visit your store after a long time. In the future, this might be a better way to approach the customers than the traditional email marketing since people are likely to click on a push notification than open an email.



Easy Updates

Similar to the usual web pages, the Magento Progressive Web App can be updated at ease once the page is refreshed. Lightning Load Speed

More than 50% of visitors will leave if your mobile version takes more than 3 seconds to load. With Progressive Web App for Magento 2, the page is loaded nearly instantly – in milliseconds, not seconds. Therefore, your customers will not see the flash of the white screen when navigating between pages and the page header will persist throughout the transition.



Convenient Offline Mode

This is impossible for both webs and apps but not for the Magento PWA. Under poor or non-existent connectivity, the customers can still continue browsing in your Magento store as long as they have visited your pages. As a result, they can enjoy the seamless shopping experience in your store – anywhere they go – even in uncertain network areas like elevator or subway.



Searchable By Search Engines

Since the Magento 2 Progressive Web App has the same structure as the websites, they can be optimized, searchable by search engines and shared via URLs as well.
