Its functionality is perfect and it simplifies workflows with the quick creation of an application Cons I don't dislike it at all, it is a good work tool that helps me reduce time in creating applications Review Source DA Daryl A. IT Support Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Appy Pie is not all Peaches and Cream." November 12, 2024 4.0 On my first round with , they charge me twice for their application. After 3 weeks it was reversed, however, I have to go through several stop payment charges with my banking institution. I was told in an email that the billing process was automated, so they need to get their backend together. Pros is good for most of the basic applications that's needed today. I have used the free (get started version), as well as a paid version. Cons As far as a UI/UX design, it fairly straight forward, when it comes to the technical stuff, it was not, and getting assistance was a long drawn out process with their help desk. I ended up coding my functionality in Android Studio using Kotlin. Switched from [Buildfire](https://www.capterra.com/p/147790/BuildFire/) Buildfire lacked the technical functionality needed for the project. I was told during an online consult that we should find a custom app developer, however, Internet of Things, Bluetooth and the Internet protocol are in every type of smart device today. They may need to rethink their platform. Review Source JP Jamie P.

With an automatic and integrated approach, builds apps with a wide range of features that would can’t find elsewhere. Fully customisable web based apps made simple. Cons doe require experience of web based development and continual upgrading. But the more work the better app Review Source Barry F. Sole Proprietor Internet Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Don't Try if You Have an Older Phone or Want a Unique or Attractive App!" November 3, 2025 1.0 Quite frankly, I'm shocked it remains a consideration as a top tier no-code option for app development, given how much better and more sophisticated other options (and vibe coding in general) has grown over 's drag and drop interface that is passable only at best on the most up-to-date mobile devices. Do not try to if you have an older phone! Pros gives users the opportunity to build a mobile app without deep coding experience, but that experience leaves a lot to be desired. It was a drag and drop builder pre-vibe coding, a relic now and it should have remained a fossile. Cons The menus are confusing and poorly executed, and many locked behind paywalls with better features. They talk about their free trial, but actual execution or publication almost isn't possible without becoming a paying customer. Even the paying customer apps, however, have a cookie cutter feeling to them - and that is not a pretty cookie. You've seen these apps before - and once you realize it, you won't unsee them. They are the most basic apps and sites out there. The aesthetic is cheap. Review Source IS Ignacio S. Real Estate Agent Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "No-code real estate team app builder." October 13, 2025 5.0 Agents dropped property information and lead forms onto mobile with haste, readily scheduled showings with appointments, and built client-facing apps without coders, enhancing customer experience and project time-to-market benefits. Pros Easy-to-use drag-and-drop interface and pre-built templates enable agents to easily develop property listing apps, customize workflows, and add appointment forms without coding; regular updates and support simplify deployment and keep app features up-to-date. Cons Advanced customizations involve additional learning or pay access, and certain design features or integrations are limited, perhaps avoiding distinctive branding or functionality for premium use cases.

Events manager Entertainment Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Wish it was better" June 17, 2025 3.0 Overall the experience with is mixed I wish they would definitely take more control over the publishing the app since it is $60 a month just to keep your app functional in both Android and Apple and that's during the creation and the testing phase. Pros I like the concept of making a drag and drop app without using coding and the app process creating it was a little challenging but not too hard and I like the features that you were able to put into your app. Cons When it was finally time to get the app onto the app store it was a hassle because they test everything there and I had a app in the Google console for 22 days with no testing being done. A lot of the tutorials are dated and are not up to current versions especially when using the messaging part of it and having to use another source other than apple pie. Alternatives considered [Yapp](https://www.capterra.com/p/149175/Yapp/) Reason for choosing Appy Pie I wanted to create a standalone app and not a app that is part of an app already in the app store Review Source EC Emanuel C.

Pros It allowed me to create an easy-to-build storytelling app without coding. It’s wonderful for featuring our audio and news features in a mobile-first manner. Cons There is limited design flexibility you are often stuck with stiff templates. Plus, publishing to the app store comes with a couple of hurdles. Review Source JA Juanita A.

Out of the four plus years I've been with this company every Representative that I've spoken with via chat, has excellent customer service, they're very knowledgeable of their product and most importantly they move fast. Pros Three chats in one day and three different Reps and he was knowledgeable and amazing as well. I am still blown away from the amazing customer service. Cons Honestly, I don't have any cons. I tried to think of something and I can't. Review Source HM Hilda M.

Pros The ease of designing and support for people with no coding experience and the original price. Cons I would like more ways to custom design from the edit page, ways to change the layout of the app, etc. It is pretty basic. Review Source OT Oana T.

Very easy to navigate and I recommend anybody beginners professionals I just want to do it fast anyone can use this. Pros Well I could tell you the pros of this app very good really smooth clean. Also very easy to use beginners that don't know anything about making apps could use this and not have a problem with it ever. I don't like about this the most is the creativity you can expand on this app is wonderful. Cons Cons of this app where I can pretty much say there's very little glitches in the app not very anything issue no big bugs or anything but time to time it does glitch a little bit but it working very fine it does work good. Review Source SM Iftekhar S. CEO Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A great tool for developing instant software without coding or prior knowledge." September 10, 2021 4.0 Overall, this is a great deal for beginners. You can create & learn more about app development with this software. But for creating an advanced app you need to switch from . Pros You need literally no coding! You can integrate IAP, create games & software instantly with Templates available out there. Anyone with no software knowledge can build basic software easily with app signing. I created my first software with before switching to Unity. Cons There is an issue with software security & source code. You can't edit the software vastly & they will charge extra for IAP. You can edit your software vastly or can't integrate advanced functions. Switched from [Andromo](https://www.capterra.com/p/171361/Andromo/) More convenient & affordable Review Source PTCH Princess Terana Caram H. Freelancer Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "beginner-friendly" May 24, 2023 5.0 My overall experience with is great! The business problem I solved with Appy Pie is they do the coding for you. I didn't need to code to make an app so it's super easy. I realized that the benefits of using Appy Pie includes less stress. I think coding really is a stressful job so I really find Appy Pie useful. Pros The feature that is most impactful is no code because when you use this software, you can make an app even if you're not a programmer. It is easy to use. The integration with my existingbusiness process is easy. Cons I think the feature that are missing is advanced option where we can try understanding the underlying coding system to us that has no idea of coding. Though there is no aspects of the product that is hard to use, I think it could improve by a more versatile version like it can be opened on a smart TV to present the idea to audience.

App Developer Fund-Raising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great No Code App Builder for Beginners and Beyond" March 8, 2021 5.0 Ok so like I said I’ve been with them since 2016 with our app. Overall it has been an experience in a good way as I must of emailed them more than my family and always got the helpful answers I needed to sort the app out. I am please Appypie have their own YouTube site for visual help as well. So I would say thumbs up from me and hope they continue to add new features to existing buttons and look forward to new things to add. Pros Simply the ability to make an app with little to no experience What you get Online support with live chat andEmail support Tools to show you how to make an app on YouTube 24/7 ability to update your app which once save the changes becomes live and changes on app on other people’s phone with your app you made Many buttons to use like food or review, taxi, videos, documents and so on. Cons We have had the app we have made called Pitt Hopkins app since 2016 with Appypie and we like most people recognise that there are some things that could be improved but to be far they have got better has time has gone by I would like to see multiple contact emails under contact button but saying that you could use directory button or editor button so it’s so minor Reason for choosing Appy Pie I must be honest the support was good and live help when you first make a no code app it can feel a little strange if you have never made one and they gave me the confidence to keep going at it Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Student in Industrial Maintenance Mining & Metals Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Appy Pie Review" February 16, 2023 5.0 Overall, is an excellent platform for users who want to create mobile applications without needing any programming knowledge. Its ease of use and intuitive interface make it an ideal choice for small businesses and entrepreneurs who are looking to create applications for their businesses. Pros I used for over a year to create, design, and develop applications, and I was very satisfied with this no-code platform. What I liked the most about Appy Pie was its ease of use and intuitive interface, which allowed me to quickly create mobile applications for iOS, Android, and Windows Phone without needing any programming knowledge. Cons The downside of the platform is that some advanced features are only available in the highest subscription plans, which can be costly for users who need those features. Additionally, while the platform offers a range of pre-built design templates, these templates may seem limiting for users who are looking to create more customized applications. Review Source LM Likhwa M. Senior Software Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "My experience with Appy Pie" August 15, 2019 4.0 I found Appie Pie fairly easy to use if not rather too simple. In all fairness, does what it is intended to do. It works particularly well for someone who is just looking to create a basic store or business app but falls short for someone with some tech experience wanting to create something more complex. I managed to create a simple app but not exactly what I had envisioned because of the limitations when it comes to customization and control of the back end. It's still a great resource and I recommend it to anyone who needs to build a basic app. Pros I like that it allows you to create a simple app even when you have no programming skills. In just a matter of minutes I can create an app for my clients. uses a series of questions to guide you as you develop your app and so the process becomes even simpler. Appy Pie also comes with the standard app features such as an About page and a link to your own website. It also comes with templates which can be easily customized to suit one's needs. I also like the text guides which suggest what to write or put in the various sections of your app. Appy Pie is fairly easy to use and anyone can get started building their app even with minimal knowledge of how to do so. Cons I wanted to build a more complex app and was limited in that regard. My vision had a detailed chat feature as well as a dynamic interface. I also needed more control of the app's backend so as to collect other user metrics and data but I could not. Appie Pie provides the developer little control over the user interface and functionality and this makes it rather limited for someone wanting to do more. For example if you would like an animation when a button is clicked or some background activity to happen automatically when a user does a specific action. Review Source RI Romeo I. CEO Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Overall quality" January 8, 2021 4.0 Overall experience I would say it is a good one. Nothing is perfect, but in my eyes the good outweighs some of the things we have to walk around to make things work. When you have a team of people dedicated to help you move forward then the outcome is bound to be good. I cannot say i have not been frustrated at times, but the signature in the email of the support team say "To your success". That alone means, and says a lot. Pros The integration with our current business process was fairly easy. The main features to build an app out of the box are there. Within hours of first using it you can have a functioning App. It also goes beyond the app itself as you can integrate your app with other Appypie products (Automation tools...). I believe the biggest strength is that a lot of the headaches of managing and taking care of an app are being taken care of. I spend a lot of time on the chat and it is great to know that the submission team is always available. It creates a certain peace of mind for me which is really important. The support team sometimes comes up with creative solutions as well. I have gotten to interact with some of them on a regular basis (\[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\]...) so kudos on that :-) Cons The main thing I would say comes to the code customization part. I have a had a hard time trying to implement a custom search feature and was told it was not possible when I have a deep feeling it is. I am still keeping hope that we can find a way to circumvent the issue. Review Source SB SELENA B. Owner E-Learning Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Frustrating Waste of Time" December 18, 2018 1.0 Terrible. I'm just hoping this is a really bad learning curve. We got a fully functioning LMS (with tests, grading, certificates, surveys, videos, etc.) up and running by ourselves TWO YEARS AGO (from another site we found here on capterra) so I can't imagine an app being any harder than an LMS - but it seems this one is. I will update my review if it gets better and we actually launch something but right now it does not look good. Pros They answered the phone although it seems like they are having multiple conversations at one time - which often leads to confusing and bad information. Cons They didn't help me when they answered in the phone. It doesn't seem like anyone speaks English as a 1st language and both I and my computer engineer had a very difficult time understanding what they were saying. In fact one tech support person told me to delete some of my work (and repeatedly told me to do so), then when I wanted to add my categories back (because they should have never been deleted in the 1st place), the add button didn't work to add them back again. I tried different browsers and sent them print screens - so I'm wondering if this software works reliably. They're telling me to email them the problem when I'm already sharing print screens (and I have video) through their live chat. There is an ENORMOUS language barrier - and the features and functions of are not well described. I spent all day trying to learn what was a category and what was a listing and how to add a page in a category (or maybe it's a listing). There is no glossary with pictures and there is no "i" button next anything and their broken English makes it virtually impossible for communications. I am perturbed that they told me to have them build my site instead after they told me to delete some of my work and their buttons no longer work to add what I deleted. That seemed kind of wrong - and I wonder if anyone else was told to delete their progress and then their appy pie dashboards buttons were deactivated so they couldn't move forward again.
