Appy Pie is a no-code platform that turns a plain-language app description into publishable Android and iOS apps, with backend, hosting, and store submission included.
About
Appy Pie is a no-code platform that lets people build mobile apps (and websites) by describing what they want in ordinary language instead of writing code. The problem it addresses is straightforward: most small businesses and founders that need an app cannot hire a development team, and generic web prototypes do not install from app stores or support native features like push notifications.
Users type an app description — for example, a restaurant booking app with payments — and Appy Pie's AI generates a first working version with screens, navigation, and data structures. From there, the app is refined in a visual editor, and further changes can be requested conversationally. The company, Appy Pie LLP, has offered no-code tools since 2016 and reports more than 10 million users. Its conversational app builder is covered by U.S. Patent No. 12,737,158, and finished apps can be published to Google Play and the Apple App Store.

Who It's For
Appy Pie suits small business owners and non-technical founders who need a real app-store presence without hiring developers. Typical users include restaurants wanting ordering and menu apps, churches building community and giving apps, taxi and delivery businesses needing rider/driver/admin apps, and retailers creating e-commerce apps with cart and checkout. It also fits creators building radio, fitness, event, or education apps. It is less appropriate for teams needing Windows/Mac desktop installers, hosted video with DRM, or regulated payment products such as licensed wallets.
