After you choose your template, it will take to some pre-setup of your app. There are four sections like App setting, app name, Description, and Icon

These are by default set up for any app that you want to create.

App Setting

In the app setting, you will have to give the URL of your website if you are creating an app for your website. 

You give the URL and when you click on go, it will automatically grab information from your site to suggest you typical templates from your site content. 

You can skip the content detection process by selecting the next button below.

In this section, you are provided with the color theme to select. There is a different predefined color theme to choose from. You can also create your own customized color theme.

 As you are ready to go ahead click on Next.

App Name

In this section, you just give the name of your app. In my case, I am giving Kumar Janglu as it is the name of my website and app name.

As has been said “What’s in the name” but I must say “Everything is in the name”. So wisely choose the name of your app.

Description

This section is about a brief description of your app. If you have chosen the website type of app and clicked on Go after providing the URL, it will automatically take the description of your app from your website that you have given on your website.

In my case, it is taking the description from my website automatically by AppsGeyser.

Icon

In this section, you can give the icon for your app. If you have your own icon that you may want to use then click on the Custom Icon radio button and select from your location where you have stored it. It should be in the square form.

As we have analyzed the pre-setup process, now click on Create to go into the more editing part of the app.

But before going further, you will be asked to create an account on AppsGeyser. But don’t bother, there is an option to sign up through Facebook or google. You can select from those options to sign up if you don’t have an account.
