Sometimes the best time to check your store isn’t the best time to be at your computer – on a train, in a corridor between meetings, on a beach. Enter the new WooCommerce Mobile App to make store management easier!

Manage WooCommerce, Wherever You Are
↑ Back to topHowever, whenever, and wherever you manage your store, the new WooCommerce Mobile App puts WooCommerce in your pocket for at-a-glance metrics, notifications, and more.
The first app we released was iOS-only, but we’re pleased to have released the new and improved version for both iOS and Android.
Key Features
- Track your store: See which products are performing best and check your overall revenue, and view order and visitor data by day, week, month, or year.
- Manage orders: Scroll, filter, or look up specific orders. Tap to view order information — including product(s), value, customer data, shipping details, and notes — and do basic order fulfillment.
- Real-time order alerts: Get notifications about store activity, including new orders and product reviews. There’s even an optional cha-ching sound!
See at a glance which products are performing best. Scroll through, filter, or look up specific orders. Get notifications about store activity.
How to Get The App and Connect Your Store
↑ Back to topThe WooCommerce Mobile App is free and available today in the iOS App Store and Google Play. There is detailed documentation for iOS and Android to guide you.
Like the WooCommerce plugin, our app is open-source and the code is available on GitHub – iOS and Android – should you wish to explore it further.
If you have an idea or suggestion for the mobile app, we’d love to hear it: search the public ideas board and sign in to upvote or add new requests.
Requirements
- A device running Android 5.0+ / an iPhone 5s or any models thereafter running iOS 11+.
- The Jetpack plugin (the free plan is fine), connected to your store.
Why do I need Jetpack?
The Jetpack plugin connects your self-hosted site to a WordPress.com account and provides a common authentication interface across lots of server configurations and architectures.
Both Apple and Google only allow a single trusted sender for pushes for security reasons (read more), making Jetpack the best way for us to give you modern mobile app features like push notifications.
As part of the required connection to WordPress.com, Jetpack caches* data locally on the WordPress.com servers. If you’d like to know exactly what data Jetpack syncs, here is the full breakdown.
Kudos to Team Hogsmeade
↑ Back to topAt Automattic, we name our teams all kinds of strange things – like Alpha, Air, and Helios. In this case, Hogsmeade is the magical team that did the majority of work to bring your new app to life.

*EDIT: 24 January 16:01 UTC: We removed the phrase “shadow site” from this section as it sounded weird and doesn’t best reflect what’s actually happening – which is just standard cloud data backup.

Do you plan to offer a way to login without Jetpack?
Hi Andrei. Login without Jetpack isn’t in the roadmap as things stand. The only constant in the world is change, so this could change, but there is no plan for this for the foreseeable future.
thanks for sharing
Yeah. The best theme for WP 😀
The dependency on Jetpack is really, really bad.
For any client I work with this is just unacceptable – and I fully agree with my clients on this one.
If there was anything missing API-wise then this should have been added into WooCommerce itself or into a simple “connect” add-on or something like that.
Thanks for being honest with your thoughts on this, David. I checked up with the mobile dev team to give you a proper answer here and they said that communicating directly with WooCommerce sites presents a number of challenges dealing with disparate server configurations, web hosts firewall rules, and the list goes on.
Providing centralized services like notifications requires a trusted third party service, like Jetpack, to provide a reliable way to connect and communicate with sites. The choice of Jetpack itself was an internal decision because we own that entire infrastructure. Coming up with a separate infrastructure to solve all of the problems Jetpack solves is hard for Automattic to justify.
I hope that answers you somewhat. There are a couple of other free/paid apps in the app stores, have you tried any of them, out of interest?
excellent read, many thanks 🙂
finally a decent guide to this
Great update… Thanks for sharing..
glad this is much easier to use than the old app where you had to copy and paste the secret keys from the wp-admin and pass over to the app.
Yes! I found copying the keys a bit of a pain – this is much easier 🙂
I loved your performances and am using all your services to implement my Vonage Website building.
I love this.
I installed the WooCommerce mobile app on my iPhone 7. It’s pretty basic, but it gets the job done. Note that it requires the Jetpack plugin.
Glad you’re set up and running, Jack. New features on the way, so keep hitting update. We hope to serve you well with it 🙂
