I described my app in a paragraph and had it on TestFlight the same afternoon. I never opened Xcode once.

It caught a rejection reason I would have missed, fixed it, and resubmitted before I finished my coffee.

Real native Swift, not a web wrapper. That is the part every other tool gets wrong, and the part that ships.

Questions.

Is designing really free?

Yes. Describing your app, answering a few questions, picking a look and tapping through the preview need no payment. Usage limits may apply. Building the native app uses credits, and the app shows what an action costs before you confirm.

Do I need a Mac?

Not to design. The design phase runs in your browser. Building the native Swift app happens on build machines we operate. The AppFlight Mac app is still there if you would rather build on your own Mac.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. You describe the app in plain words. appflight builds it as real native Swift, shows it to you in your browser and on your iPhone, and publishes it to TestFlight and the App Store.

Can I put my app on the App Store?

Yes. Send a build to TestFlight for testers, then to the App Store when you are ready. Apple still reviews every app, so submitted is not the same as approved.

Which devices can I build for?

You can build for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. Every app is real native Swift, so adding a device builds on the same app, not a rewrite. The Platforms page lists every device and feature.

What do you keep about me?

Your account, projects, designs, chat and generated code, so we can build for you. You can export your data and delete your account. The Privacy Policy lists exactly what is stored and for how long.

What will you build?

Describe it in a sentence. Designing is free during the beta.
