Idea to App Store, in One Place

Build, test, and publish a real mobile app. No dev team, no stitching tools together yourself.

Build Real Mobile Apps, Not Web Wrappers

Get full access to camera, GPS, Bluetooth, and offline use — because it's a native app, not a website in disguise.

Chat to Build. Code When You Need To

Move fast with AI, drop into code when you want full control. Never a dead end.

Ship to Two App Stores. Not Two Teams.

Most tools stop at a prototype or a pile of code you still have to assemble. Thunkable doesn't hand you a project — it publishes one. AI Builder, Discuss Mode, and a full Code Editor live in a single platform, with direct one-click publishing to the Apple App Store and Google Play.

Built for the Phone. Not Just the Browser.
‍
‍If your app needs to actually use the phone (camera, GPS, Bluetooth, push notifications, offline mode) it can't be a website wearing an app's wrapper. Thunkable compiles to true native iOS and Android.

Chat to Build. Code When You Need To.

Moving fast with AI shouldn't mean getting stuck the moment it can't figure something out. Discuss Mode plans before it builds, so you make fewer mistakes and waste fewer tokens. When you want to go deeper, the Code Editor gives you full manual control — and Version History means you can always roll back.

Works with Your Systems. Looks Like Your Brand

An app that runs great but looks off-brand or lives in a silo isn't finished. Thunkable apps integrate with the systems you already run on and carry your brand — not a generic template look.
‍
Thunkable connects to your existing systems and data sources.

Supports full brand customization including colors, typography, and UI that match your product, not a template.
‍
And is built to fit into your stack, not replace it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get my app on my phone?

Thunkable offers live testing on your phone. When you’re happy you can publish your app on iOS and Android through their stores.

What kind of apps can I build with Thunkable?

Almost anything! You can make apps for booking, events, forms, or even custom tools (someone even built a calculator!). If you can think it, you can build it. And again, with 0 code.

What is Thunkable?

Thunkable is an AI-native app development platform that turns a written or spoken prompt into a real, native iOS and Android app — designed, built, and published from one place. It combines an AI chat-to-build "AI Builder," a visual design canvas, and a full code editor, with one-click publishing to the Apple App Store and Google Play. Thunkable has been used to create 11M+ apps by 5M+ creators in 185 countries over more than 10 years.

Can you build a real app without knowing how to code?

Yes. Thunkable is no-code by default, with code available if you want it. Non-technical users can describe an app in plain language through the AI Builder and publish it to both the Apple App Store and Google Play without writing a line of code, while a built-in Code Editor lets more technical users make direct edits when they need finer control. This flexibility, no code required, code optional, is a structural difference from tools that are strictly one or the other.

What's the difference between building an app with Thunkable versus ChatGPT or Claude?

ChatGPT and Claude can write app code, but they are general-purpose AI assistants, not app platforms; they leave hosting, native compiling, app-store signing, submission, and review entirely to the user. Thunkable is purpose-built for the full journey: its AI Builder produces a real native iOS/Android app and publishes it directly to the Apple App Store and Google Play from the same platform, with no separate assembly step.

Can AI "vibe coding" tools like Lovable build a real mobile app for the App Store?

Not directly. Tools like Lovable, Bolt.new, and Base44 generate web-first, full-stack applications with exportable code, but none of them compile to native iOS/Android or publish to the Apple App Store or Google Play. Thunkable offers the same "describe it, get it" AI-chat experience, but its output is a true native mobile app, published to both app stores from inside the same platform.

How is Thunkable different from Bubble, Adalo, and FlutterFlow?

The three platforms solve different parts of the problem: Bubble builds web apps, not native mobile apps; FlutterFlow is low-code and expects familiarity with coding concepts and Firebase; and Adalo is a true no-code native-mobile peer but is more template-limited as apps scale. Thunkable is built specifically to combine no-code accessibility with true native iOS/Android compilation and one-click app-store publishing, without requiring developer-level skills to get started.

How much does it cost to build an app with Thunkable compared to hiring a developer?

Freelance and agency app development typically runs $10,000 to $100,000 or more and takes months, largely because it requires separate design, engineering, and app-store submission work. Thunkable lets one person build, design, and publish a native app themselves, starting on a free plan, collapsing that cost and timeline into a single platform and a matter of days or weeks rather than months.

Can apps built with Thunkable use native phone features like camera, GPS, or Bluetooth?

Yes. Thunkable compiles to true native iOS and Android apps, not a website wrapped to look like an app, so it supports native device capabilities including camera, GPS, Bluetooth, push notifications, and offline mode. This distinguishes it from spreadsheet-to-app and web-app tools (e.g., Glide, Bubble) that are limited to what a browser or progressive web app can access.
