Build engaging mobile apps fast

With the Mobile Apps feature of Azure App Service, it’s easy to rapidly build engaging cross-platform and native apps for iOS, Android, Windows, or Mac; store app data in the cloud or on-premises; authenticate users; send push notifications; or add your custom backend logic in C# or Node.js.

Add corporate sign-on in seconds

Easily authenticate your users with Active Directory; securely connect to on-premises resources like SAP, Oracle, SQL Server, and SharePoint; and leverage cross-platform frameworks like Xamarin and PhoneGap to build enterprise-grade apps for your employees.

Use offline data sync to build responsive apps

Create robust apps that remain useful when there are network issues, so that users can create and modify data even when they're offline. Improve app responsiveness by caching server data locally on the device. With Mobile Apps you can easily provide a native sync experience across your iOS, Android, and Windows apps.

Connect your apps to on-premises data

Azure lets you build mobile apps that can consume data from your own data center. With Hybrid Connections and VPN, it's easy to access your data securely from your on-premises data centers from anywhere in the world.

Broadcast personalized push notifications to millions in minutes

Notification Hubs is a massively scalable mobile-push notification engine capable of sending millions of push notifications to iOS, Android, Windows, or Nokia X devices within seconds. You can easily hook Notification Hubs into any existing app backend, whether that backend is hosted on-premises or in Azure.

Autoscale to fit your business

Easily configure built-in autoscale for both Mobile Apps and Notification Hubs to match your app needs. Spin up/down resources based on actual usage and pay only for what you need. With access to the global network of Microsoft managed data centers, you can reach users anywhere in the world.
