The app is designed to leverage mobile data for content retrieval, allowing direct contact with the client center via phone and storing orders and data directly on the user's device without sending it to external servers. This ensures the security and convenience of users when shopping and managing their orders through the Syntex.cz mobile app. Thus, Syntex continues its innovative growth, offering customers a wide range of products and modern services.
