Summary

Superapps are gaining traction globally as they consolidate multiple applications into a single, seamless mobile experience, improving user convenience and efficiency. Traditionally defined by their ability to provide access to independently created mini apps under one umbrella, superapps are evolving beyond this definition to enhance organizational structure and workflow. Consumer superapps, like those developed by EGYM, improve user engagement by integrating tailored experiences, while workplace superapps streamline operations and reduce wasted time by consolidating disparate digital tools into one unified platform. As more businesses recognize their potential, particularly in Asia and Latin America, superapps are expected to expand in the West, driven by their ability to enhance operational efficiency and user experience. Companies like Walmart are already exploring superapps to replace fragmented processes, and the development of tools such as the Superapp SDK is facilitating the creation of these comprehensive digital ecosystems.
