@vladojsem Apple's App Store rules don't allow apps that are just versions of the website, but from a technical perspective they should be App Store compliant. We do offer enterprise services where corporations can create distributable apps.
Hello Hunters!
Today we're launching Unite 4, the biggest update to Unite since the first release three years ago. This update includes the first ever redesign for the in-app experience, an all new creation tool with icon customization features, web notification support, keychain access, pro tools, dock slices, and much more!
The update is a result of six months of development and is built from the ground up for Big Sur. We hope you'll give it a look and let us know your thoughts!
Here are a few free codes for those who get here early! I may drop some more later in the day.

The best way to support the project though is to buy a license, and for the next week, you can get 20% off any Unite order when you use the code 'ProductHunt' at checkout!
Thank you again for reading and taking a look!

Love it! Can you please include a dark background when the app/website is loading? That would make the experience a whole lot better! Also, I seem to have issues with changing the icon once the app is created. I tried icns, png files, but I got the same error. Thanks!
@leo_at_zapier 1) good idea about dark background 2) aware in app icon switch is bugged, will try to get fixed soon
@bzg0515 The notes reference you can change app passwords that offer to get saved in Preferences. Can you share where this setting is?
You AGAIN! LOL If someone wants to buy this app, please BE AWARE, this developer will charge you money for newer version almost every year. Another EVIDENCE: https://www.producthunt.com/post...
@sunnyheart not sure I understand why this is a bad thing. Each update that is released is significant in updates and they offer a 50% discount in upgrading. You don't have to upgrade to the newest version if you want to. So the "will charge you" is only if YOU want to upgrade. Honestly I easily upgrade each version they come up with as it's worth it to me. May not be the same for everyone.
@sunnyheart is right. I will 100% be releasing one major paid update as opposed to subscription pricing every year. This is the business model - the outgoing version will continue to be supported for at least another year (big bug fix update yesterday!). Not sure why he has such trouble understanding why no one else is as upset as he is.
@sunnyheart As a happy customer of not Unite but Coherence (his other SSB tool based on Chromium) I'm glad he adds value to the app each year and charges me for it so I know it'll be supported, updated, and continually improve. How many fantastic apps here on ProductHunt die an untimely death simply because the maker had to move on, get a job, or do something else because they can't justify the time/expense of maintaining their projects?
Don't get me wrong, I love free tools, experimenting in the marketplace, and I'm a huge proponent of FOSS; but for niche apps that adds value to me - I'll gladly pay for each release if I know it supports the developers to continue to improve their product.
@sunnyheart FAKE ONE-TIME PURCHASE and also see this developer was moody by the above link.
I've been using Unite every day so I have a standalone app window for Google Drive/Docs/Sheets. A different app for each of my Google Accounts
Really like the last version of Unit. I am using BZG for multiple years now and I think that Unit version 4 is one of the best. The integration with BigSur is perfect. Highly recommended.
Excited to try this @bzg0515 . That said, I'm concerned about privacy. How can I be sure that you're not snooping my data when I create an app (e.g. gmail)?
Looks like last 3.2 update is not downloading on the app or when i go to download link, looks like its broken.
@bzg0515 the link on the website is working, the internal update on the app it self is not, but i downloaded it.
I would like a refund to my Unit 4 license.
a) Netflix didn't work, when I click in login it opens in Safari instead. I've tried al day different settings;
b) every time I open the app it opens in mobile mode and then I need to click to request Desktop version;
c) the preferences UI has some glitches in icons;
d) every time I open the app the User Agent opens in iPhone selected and I need to change to Safari;
e) too much clicks before even start to do what you want with the app created;
So, I'm unhappy with the app. Could I get a refund? I already deactivated my license, I'm not using it anymore.
@brunorodrigues Please contact us via the website for a refund, however, many of these issues are solvable.
a + b) are because you enabled whitelisting and compact mode during creation. When creating an app, make sure none of the option at bottom of interface are selected if you don't intend for them to be
d) also because of above
e) Don't know what you're talking about
@bzg0515 I've contacted you via website support. I really bought the app thinking about the easy of use, but when I've tried to include it in my workflow I ended up using more time to organize the app created that using Safari as usual. So, I really would like a refund. My license is not in use anymore. I would be grateful for you for any help.
Some problems:
a) Netflix didn't work, when I click in login it opens in Safari instead. I've tried all day different settings;
b) every time I open the app it opens in mobile mode and then I need to click to request Desktop version;
c) the preferences UI has some glitches in icons;
d) every time I open the app the User Agent opens in iPhone selected and I need to change to Safari;
e) too much clicks before even start to do what you want with the app created;
f) icon automatically creation are not in HD, you'll have to create your own icons in almost 90% of cases;
So, I'm unhappy with the app. Could I get a refund? I already deactivated my license, I'm not using it anymore.
Hi ?makers, is an m1 native version of coherence X coming soon? I need to use chrome for its plugins (i.e. hubspot with gmail) and a few apps that run much better on chrome than safari
I started using Unite after their Black Friday sale a couple weeks ago. I turned Zoho Projects, CRM, Books, and WorkDrive into desktop-based app and I'm OBSESSED with it. Works fantastic and solves the problems of other app-makers I've tried (namely 1. couldn't handle external links and 2. did horribly with opening new tabs)
I've used Unite since version 2. It's an excellent, dead-simple way to create a free-standing app from your favorite SAAS browser application.
New user of Unite, and I'm loving it! I have a few websites that I use daily for work, and this allows me to quickly create an app for them so I can launch them when I launch all my other apps. Sounds minor, but it's a big time saver for me!
Simple and genius idea that is made remarkably great. Super simple to use, minimalist design. I tarted with Unite 3 and this one works much smoother. Thank you Binyamin.
A very simple idea that's massively convenient. I know it's probably just psychological having an app vs using a website but it makes a big difference for me. Thanks!
Great App. I loved Unite 3, and Unite 4 feels even better. A. great way to turn site URLs into an app... Easy to use and very efficient. I am glad to have this tool in my toolbox.
Its a great app which can make your life so easy. It is great to turn all your important websites into useful apps which work great on your device. Simply, Loved the product !
