Various Ways to Create Apps

kintone provides various ways to create apps. In either way you choose, you can customize app settings later whenever you want.

Choose an app from the "Featured Apps" area in kintone Marketplace

The marketplace offers plenty of apps categorized by the type of business, industry, and usage. You can easily create your own apps by simply choosing apps according to the purpose of use.
This method is recommended when you create an app for the first time.
