Managed publishing and Flutter customization with Wrapply
Wrapply can manage web-to-app conversion, Flutter source-code customization, Android and iOS build preparation, and store publishing support for clients who want a complete service.
What managed publishing means
Managed publishing means Wrapply helps you move from website or Flutter source code to store-ready app delivery. This can include conversion, app configuration, build preparation, source-code customization, APK/AAB generation, iOS support and submission guidance.
Wrapply configures the web-to-app experience for your website, PWA, no-code or AI-generated web app.
APK, AAB and iOS build support depending on the selected service.
Deeper Flutter customizations, integrations, navigation changes and native behavior can be handled as a service.
Guidance and operational support for Google Play and App Store submission workflows.
When you need managed customization
The online builder covers fast customization such as AppBar, BottomNavigationBar and FloatingActionButton. More advanced changes require editing the Flutter source code.
Push notifications, analytics, authentication or Firestore logic.
Camera, location, file access, notifications and platform-specific behavior.
Complex routing, protected areas, external link handling or payment flows.
Custom screens, onboarding, splash, app-specific layouts and design refinements.
Updating code vs updating website content
This is one of the most important differences to understand after publishing.
If you change text, pages, products, prices or layouts on the website URL loaded by the app, you usually update only the website.
If you change app navigation, native configuration, Firebase, permissions, app icon, package name or source code logic, you must rebuild and republish.
Before uploading a new Android/iOS build, update the version/build number in
pubspec.yaml.After rebuilding, upload a new AAB to Google Play or a new iOS build to App Store Connect.
version: 1.0.1+2
Android rebuild:
flutter build appbundle --release
iOS rebuild:
flutter build ipa --release

FAQ
Can Wrapply modify the Flutter source code?
Yes. Source-code customization can be requested for integrations, navigation, Firebase, native behavior and UI changes.
Do I need a new app build for every website update?
No. If you only update website content at the URL loaded by the app, you usually do not need a new app build.
When do I need to update pubspec.yaml?
When you rebuild and submit a new app version to Google Play or App Store, update the version/build number in pubspec.yaml.
