How to create your app home screen
Maker(V2) – The first thing on the page menu is to create the home screen.
Since the home screen is the first app main screen that appears when you launch the app, you need to apply the menu to match your app design and style.
Swing2App provides a variety of menus to configure the home screen.
If you are new to swing2app, you’ll have a hard time deciding what to use.
This post will show you a variety of menus that can be applied to your home screen.

If you use the home screen in a different style and apply the home screen to the app introduction page again, apply it in the following way.

▶The description, address, email address, phone number, website address, etc. on the app introduction page can be modified in the advanced settings.
[Advanced Settings] Steps on the app Maker(V2) page
Settings – Select App Service Info to edit your phone, email, address, app description, website address, and more.
This is how you create a home screen.
Many different menus create the home screen, so decorate your home screen in a variety of styles.
We recommend that you modify the menus other than the default app introduction menu.
*Push and web view style users do not need to create a home screen because they are created by applying the website link to the app.
