Best option for web app

Always very happy about service

Pros

Easy to understand, everything is very clear and if not, the support always helps you

Cons

The possibility to track actions inside the app and the possiblity for a backup (this is common to most of the other platform so we have chosen appy pie because offers anyway the best options for the other things)

BEST OPTION FOR SMALL BUSINESS APP!

I have solved a major problem of customer loss due to COVID. Now my customers are able to shop from home!

Pros

The product is easy to use and affordable! I am always able to get help exactly when I need it at any time day or night! It gives you the opportunity to grow your business and upgrade your product as needed. I love that!

Cons

At first it seemed overwhelming and I was aggravated, but it was because I had no idea what I was doing! I quickly learned so much that I was able to navigate through and make changes that I needed to make. Maybe update some of the instructional videos to make them a little easier to follow for some of us who have no clue whatsoever.

Reasons for Choosing Appy Pie

Because the online store/website offered by ConsignPro took days to post pictures of merchandise I listed for sale, causing problems. They only let me post a few items a month, very costly.

Unlimited designs

reduced waiting hours for creating applications, images or videos is now easier with unique designs creating more flexible workflows

Pros

The ease of creating image and video applications without code is wonderful to be able to have this tool apart from the fact that with its artificial intelligence it is easy to create and with very good results, a large amount of time is eliminated in the creation that with coding the process is slower . I feel happy to use this platform because, in my opinion, it is becoming easier to create applications without the need for programmers.

Cons

perhaps the prices are a little expensive but it is a drawback because its good performance makes one pay whatever price

My Few Month of Commendable Review for Appy Pie

It Was a Good Experience all through. but it was one that requires you to be on your toes, and be ready to get either disappointed or Happy with your Work(Builded App)

Pros

My first Love for the Appy Pie Platform, is been able to design Apps without you even signing in. Secondly you given a Basic Plan where you can build your App. Thirdly you have the opportunity to include features you see from already establish app or site. and Lastly but not the Least, you can also be able to monetize your App after productions through either Google Admob Amazon And more.

Cons

Unfortunately, Their are some more factors which make the platform stressful and tough for developers or Non-coders, First their is no much difference in App created on the Appy Pie Platform, they all tend to look similar, Secondly building a Clone App seems to be easy from start but definately going to be complicated. Thirdly you have to be ready to spend, if not you would have to stop your Project Half Way, which seems the Appy Pie Platform is a little bit contradicting it own usability by anyone(Poor).

Anyone can create an app without knowing programming with Appy Pie, I love it!

Brilliant! I always wanted to learn programming to create apps but the years passed and that goal was being forgotten, but with Appy Pie I was able to do it! I'm delighted!

Pros

It's really easy to use and no previous programming knowledge is required, with its drag and drop tool (which works wonderfully) it's really easy! The price is ok, fancy interface and great customer service, 10/10!

Cons

Everything is fine, the only problem I had was sometimes when uploading an image it gave an error, having to do it again, but it's okay

My first impresion from this software si amazing

I have an Uscreen SVOD channel but with them, it is so expensive to start the app. So I decided to do it myself.

Pros

The interface and workflow are so simple and intuitive that I hadn't had any problems until I jumped into the google console and even then the Appy Pie team give me a hand and helped me instantly . It was amazing how easy the process went and I was so afraid before this my attempt I had never tried to do an app.

Cons

Could find any disappointing points and I am pretty slappy with the web development and other applications build software.

Terrible. I wouldn’t wish this experience on my worst enemy.

Pros

Platform very intuitive. Very smooth to build an app however having it actually published through them. Good luck

Cons

Scammers. Kept calling me to increase from a platinum plan to one I didn’t need. I submitted my app to the Apple Store on my own because all of the sudden “my plan doesn’t include that” . Still no app published.

My experience with Appy Pie

I found Appie Pie fairly easy to use if not rather too simple. In all fairness, Appy Pie 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. Appy Pie 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 Appy Pie 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.

Appy Pie is the absolute best!

Overall, I love this program, it is easy to learn and use. I love the push notification option, and how easily I can integrate media, images, and videos from various platforms!

Pros

I was able to design a unique and beautiful app very quickly. The interface is easy to use, and there are TONS of options and customizable functions! Their customer service is exceptional...fast, helpful, and very intelligent. Most of all, this has helped us tremendously with quickly reaching and uplifting our audience and community.

Cons

Continuity in how it appears across different platforms. For example, Samsung, vs iPhones vs tablets, can look very different. And sometimes when using the app I have to press my selection twice, the buttons/selections could be more sensitive.

Good for starter

So far I just wait to see how business will grow with Appy Pie services. Will report it later. Cross my fingers

Pros

Ux design is limited, but good enough for a simple app. Price is ok to start and tryout the services, but long run need to calculate how the app effect to business grown as well as how much user bring in business income compare to expense with Appy Pie Pie. Customer support is good and fast and helpful walk to resolve issue immediately. One thing I don't like the plan setup is price high if we want our app listed in Apple App Store while Apple App store charge more expensive than Google Play store, and go by yearly. Google Play store is just one time charge and very affordable price. Appy Pie should does reverse on their plan setup to keep their customers stay with them, and attract more new customer to do business with them, sinc Apple product user is huge in the market. Appy Pie need to upgrade their UX provide broader design tools for their customer. Last bu not least, remove your logo in app for free of charge or just about $20 one time charge not double price line current setup.

Cons

Limited UX design tools
Charge on plan too much for just have Apple Store listed
Charge for remove Appy Pie logo too expensive and no make sense
Don't have a security agreement document for using customer Apple ID, Google Login when using it for their jobs.

they promise more than they deliver

i tried to create a simple mobile app to help users manage their dental problems and have the option of having online consultation with a dental professional. the app came highly recommended from a review of G2 and capterra. The application has been a let down so far. I have been getting more "No" than "yes" for simple problems. they dont allow you customize your app without payment, does not matter if you are trying out fro future use or trying to create an application. the live chat customer service are quite prompt in taking your complaint but never seem to have as solution. I had to scale my app down just to fit into their functionality. I dont believe this is a good experience, especially for first time users who have read so much on the app. The email service might as well be obsolete as they never respond to any queries. For those that are on basic subscription, the options are very very limited ans the best you can do is create a very basic application. So far, not impressed

Pros

it is very easy to use, easy to manipulate and does not require any coding at all. You can design an app within minutes

Cons

they have very limited and boring layouts. their layouts are not customizable and their functions are very basic and few

If they improve a few things, they could be great

It's a great builder, not very expensive, and very simple to use. Honestly some times we had miscommunications but overall I'm satisfied.

Pros

It's very easy to use, and they have constant live chat. There are some great people who can help you like [SENSITIVE CONTENT]. They really care about the customer. Unfortunately not all the customer service people are like that but that happens in the live chats.

Cons

Many times a received misinformation from the chat people, also they submitted once my app without asking me. They show that I add the Appypie as moderators in the google console and they were thinking that i want to publish it. But didn't want it out yet. They didn't ask me.

Appy App

After I caught onto hell apple pie presented the box to create within things became a lot easier it wasn’t necessarily the ability to learn as fast as I was able to but it had more to do with operating within the confines of the platforms capabilities

Pros

It’s not necessarily the technical knowledge that’s required as much as the ability to use in manipulate the environment That happy pi allows you to operate within.

Cons

In the beginning there was a steep learning curve just because of things like changing the colors on one page would change the 15 other pages it’s just little things like that that are always seem to be improving on the office come along way is over the last year customer support his gotten a lot better but but yeah still definitely a learning curve associated with the app

making app in Appy pie.com

Pros

I signed on this website 8 months ago and started making apps in this website.i made some apps also .here you can make apps very easy .the best thing in this website if you are new to make apps they will guide you to step by step in making apps.finally after making app if you want to publish in app stores like play store or something else they will guide you too also.If you want to test how your app working they provide testing tool also.if you afraid to publish you simply make 25 apps in appypie and leave it to them they will publish on playstore.you can watch how your apps are reaching users.this is a great opportunity in this website

Cons

First-time users will deffinetly confuse what they are making .if you are looking for app making websites without coding I will give to this website 7/10 rating because i have tried other websites also for making apps. The main play store is you can view how the app opportunity like but here you can't imagine how its look like because in other websites you just add blocks for your app.and they clear mention about block how it will react. Here there are no blocks.basically all app makers use coding so the blocks describe what it is

We turned our complex web site into a full app on every device 100% seamlessly.

Excellent software, excellent tech support - instantaneous (via chat) and very clear. We saved hundreds of hours and enormous deployment costs.

Pros

VERY clear user interface, VERY logical, VERY specific and detailed. Hides all the complex details but exposes tremendous power, converting the designer into a powerful high level programmer. In the case of the website-migration as a dynamic app, you can make changes *AFTER* your app has deployed through the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store and they will be reflected immediately, without the need to re-release the software. Also, AppyPie takes care of releasing the software for you, which saved us hundreds of hours. We came from a competitor where WE had to deal with submitting software through the Apple and Google systems - very complex in some cases. You won't have to deal with any of this in AppyPie!!!

Cons

No disadvantages - options have allowed us to do everything we need. You have to look carefully at the UI elements because in its power, this system doesn't expose all the choices you have right away. It's easy to miss a few splash screen options, for example, but the system has defaults for every case.

Appy Pie Review

Overall, Appy Pie 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 Appy Pie 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.
