Showpad Apps

Showpad Apps allow you to organize and present your Showpad content in your own custom apps to give all the feels and provide maximum effect. They let you take advantage of the Showpad eOS™ to create unique applications perfectly tailored to meet your specific needs and brand.

In our continuous effort to enhance user experience and increase security, we've transitioned from the conventional method of adding apps as .zip files in the Content Library. Instead, we've introduced Showpad Apps as the new dedicated hub for your apps within the Showpad Online Platform.
