Overview 

nomorePAPER App as a Service provides your company with apps carrying your branding, images and colour schemes from end to end.  Under the hood is our powerful App Runtime technology which gives you drag and drop control over the app contents via our web based App Builder tools. 


nomorePAPER manages the process from start to finish and thereafter ensures your apps are maintained and updated as we release new versions and resolve bugs.  As a guide, we update apps at least once a month on average.
Apps are published under your own accounts on the Apple App Store and Google Play respectively and there are no mentions of nomorePAPER anyway (i.e. no “powered by” mentions). 


App Theme/Style

You need to choose one of two distinct styles for your app to be created with, namely: 

Flat ThemeClassic Theme


The Flat theme provides styling inspired by Microsoft’s Windows Phone and Windows 8, as well as recent designs from Google and Apple’s IOS 7. This theme emphasizes squared-off edges, solid colours and small to non-existent borders on buttons and shapes. Flat is the more modern or “cutting edge” theme.
The Classic theme styles your app using the traditional app style found in Apple’s IOS 5 and 6. Rounded buttons and shapes, inset borders and shadows are used, with gradients and gloss featured across the app.  Classic is the more “familiar” theme.


Standard App Colours

The following additional areas must be customised for your branded app.
Default Background 1 - 3 
Hexadecimal RGB colour for default background gradient (1 = top, 2 = middle, 3 = bottom).
These colours are used when the Organisation Setup values fail to download and for the login screen. Don't nominate an app background colour that conflicts with the colours in your images. You can’t put a black logo on a black background for example.
nomorePAPER default: #F99445, #F88557, #F77813

Sign In Button Background 
Hexadecimal RGB colour for Sign In button on Login screen.

New/Existing User Button Background 
Hexadecimal RGB colour for New/Existing User button on Login screen

Default Button Background 
Hexadecimal RGB colour for default button background.  Button colour has to display white text, and so this needs to taken into consideration. Colours that are to light will be hard to read.
In nomorePAPER default buttons are orange coloured.
