The best no code mobile app builders in 2023

[@hamzaxezzat]

Dude, I watched too much videos and make massive research, but your video is the really best, I never do comments but I deserve the appreciation, Thank you

[@MatthewGira]

Appreciate the feedback and kind words!!

[@razaakraji4655]

I agree

[@ukcharlietaylor]

Really helpful video. I've built a couple of apps in Glide and wanted a simple overview & comparison of the main, more technically advanced app builders. You made it very clear!

[@MatthewGira]

Glad to hear it! Thanks for letting me know!!

[@MrRsegel]

Amazing video! Should be at least in the millions of views, super underrated.

Hey can you build an app for me

[@bradford-vts]

Great video. Gutted you didnt talk about pricing

[@hanriver_runner]

5:19 Hey Matthew I thought it was you in the video inside of the video btw, it might be very cool to see if you show an actual app that has blockchain functionality in a video - how long it took you etc. I'm trying to build an blockchain app using Glide or Draftbit or bubble. But I wasn't so sure which one is the easiest for blockchain needs (couldn't really find helpful vid on KZbin). Just some idea

[@MatthewGira]

Thanks for the feedback. To my knowledge, it's not possible or if it is, pretty challenging to incorporate blockchain into Glide and other no-code tools.

How about the backend

[@Proctaaa]

Over 3 months later, any big changes that may have an impact on my choices from this video? Great video!

[@MatthewGira]

I don't think anything that should impact anyone. Generally, the trends of the tools seem to be staying true. Glide going more towards for internal tools for larger companies, Adalo being like Adobe XD for startups, and then Flutterflow being the most robust, but also steepest learning curve.

[@jyllpodiatryandperformance]

Hi if I pay 25$ for glide how many people can download my app.

[@MatthewGira]

It's unlimited visitors no matter which plan you're on: www.glideapps.com/pricing

[@dinorossi6611]

Can you build a complex app in Glide? Are you skilled in it ?

[@MatthewGira]

Yes and no on the complexity. It totally depends on the use case. It's not going to be the most custom build you've ever seen though. Flutterflow would have a lot more of the bells & whistles.

[@Isaac2001Ike]

Can any no code platform be used for making an app that tracks usage time of different apps on the cellphone?

[@RaymondLeslieHunter]

[@kaushaltak007]

@@RaymondLeslieHunter Yes, I am. A no code app that can do what I mentioned above.

[@MatthewGira]

Maybe Flutterflow, but I don't see how that would work off the top of my head. Glide & Adalo won't be able to do that unless there's a plugin of some sort.

[@DimitriKampouridis]

Hey Matthew thank you very much for your overview, really insightful !! Which platform would you recommend to build a mobile fitness app ? Thank you man, really appreciated !

[@lemicmelo7713]

Great content man, keep it up with the hard work!! Quick question what too would you recommend for a web app for user registration, help the user automated their daily work using AI and sending out emails? I already have the design on figma but still don’t know what should be the next step, maybe building the backend but how to integrate with figma or framer? Should i move to webflow insted? Hope you or anyone here find the time to answer. Thank you

[@MatthewGira]

Hmm. I don't know if any of the no-code tools can do all of that just yet. Maybe with plug-ins and integrations. Once integrations/hardware get pulled in, it becomes questionable with no code tools depending on API accesses and such. Webflow would be a no. Framer I would assume is a no (personally, haven't used it much). Flutterflow might be your best bet.

[@themaddoxfamily9792]

Great info! What’s your take on Social Media apps?

[@MatthewGira]

For creating one?

[@kirolosboules3494]

which best for e-commerce app please advice

[@MatthewGira]

If it's just a simple e-commerce store, I wouldn't build an app. Shopify is great. If it's a really custom use case, any tool could work, but whether you want mobile or not is important. As mentioned, not all of these platforms go to the App Store. Flutterflow will give you the most robustness.

[@anantsky]

Is Power App any good compared to the 3 you reviewed?

[@MatthewGira]

I think you're talking about Microsoft's Power Apps. If that's the case, I haven't used them just yet, but knowing Microsoft and looking at the info on their websites, it's definitely for more internal tools. If you're using Microsoft products already and want to create more internal tools, that could definitely be worth a shot. Probably an in-between Glide and Flutterflow in terms of complexity if I had to guess.

[@Mitch6020]

@Matthewgira thanks for this honest and articulate video. Quick question: will I deal with a lot of bugs if I publish my own app on the app store (through these platforms)? 2. How much does it cost to publish my own app and is it a one time fee?

[@MatthewGira]

Flutterflow has a "bug detector" of sorts built in, so you'll see where the issues are. Adalo and Glide don't have as much complexity, so bugs really won't be an issue there. Depends if you're going to the app stores to publish. If you are, they do have yearly costs for about $100/year. If you're not going to the app stores, there's no extra cost. You can just share the link to your app via the tool you chose.

[@rafaelyinflow]

Is there no way to wrap a Glide app URL into a webview and therefore publish to Google and Apple App Store?

[@MatthewGira]

There are exporters out there for Glide, but you lose your support from Glide's team if you ever run into issues. I would just have users create a button on their mobile phones which is just a link to the mobile site of your glide app.

[@nazirulzakaria4341]

Hi sir, I only got an ipad for me to use, can i use it to build an app from it.. or anyone can answer my question. thanks

[@jojustchilling]

Me again! What if I published an adalo mvp on the appstore then make a Flutterflow app? How would that work in terms of transitioning?

[@MatthewGira]

It's probably two separate apps.

[@benjaminbachman]

Great overview.

[@MatthewGira]

Appreciate the feedback!

[@abhishek_23685]

Is there any available for installing on desktop instead of working in their website?

[@MatthewGira]

I don't believe so. Maybe there's a way to download the code and go from there? That's a bit out of my scope.

[@MichaeI48]

Great video, but what programming language is used for the flutter-flow custom code function?

[@PratyushSamantaray]

Dart

[@spareplanet]

Excellent video! Subscribed. You mentioned Flutter imports/exports code, may I ask what language?

[@MatthewGira]

So, I haven't personally exported code, but from what I've read and been told, it's in "Flutter" which is very similar to React.

[@thenewprofit]

@@MatthewGiraactually it is Dart language (similar to js, but made by Google), Flutter is a framework

[@webree]

V Interesting video, thanks. I'm trying to find a nocode platform for mobile (and website) systems that lets me put in my idea as something i can understand (an entity diagram). The front end is also important. But I need to support this going forward and need to understand it quickly - hence the entity diagram.

[@Maver1ck101]

What do you think of Google Appsheet?

[@MatthewGira]

I haven't dove into it in-depth, but from looking at it a little bit, it looks way more like an internal tool for corporations rather than building a new startup with it.

[@brijohnson1994]

Hi,, Can I migrate from adalo and once that’s done is there a way to create a database on the backend?

[@MatthewGira]

Probably wouldn't be pretty. I'd probably recreate outside of Adalo and then download the data you have in Adalo and import that into your new app.

[@required0z]

Hey Mathew. i'm looking to build a multivendor app, where sellers connects with buyers... i have started with Glide but got stucked, so rn i am looking to learn glide from scratch before continuing.. do you think Glide is the best no code tool to easily acheive this?

[@MatthewGira]

For a beginning marketplace, yeah, Glide is a great option. If you build a strong backend in Airtable or Google Sheets, Glide just becomes the front end aka a website that connects to Airtable/Sheets.

[@lovelymusicnow4404]

Is it possible to create a camera app for iOS iPhone with any of these apps?

[@MatthewGira]

To my knowledge, no. The only way it might be possible is by adding custom code to Flutterflow. Glide & Adalo I don't see a pathway there.

If you've uploaded your app to the appstore and after a few days you quit your subscription to any of these app builders, will it still be available in the appstore?

It might be posted in the App Store, but the app itself wouldn't work I would assume.

Hi Matthew, thank you so much for this helpful information. I am in the process of building a wellness business, and I think an app would be a really nice feature, but I am trying to decide if this is something I want to start with or build later once I have more funds to dedicate to it. One of the functions I would like to have is customized exercise programs for the members. Do you know if this is something that can be accomplished in any of these app builders? Thanks!

[@MatthewGira]

When you say customized, do you mean personalized or what do you mean by that? It sounds like you're just starting out, so I would recommend using an off the shelf type of tool (how could you duck tape it together with links or other tools you already know) and then go from there.

[@influenceocean1679]

Hey Matthew, do you feel Adalo is a good choice for a music festival app with around 10K users?

[@MatthewGira]

I think it could be. If it's pretty simple, like showing schedules and acting as a web page in a lot of ways, I could see that working pretty well. If it's more than that in terms of features (like anything with community features), I would probably test it out with a core group (30-100 people) and see how it goes. If there's no big hiccups, it's probably fine. Just have to make sure your financial model/budget can handle it if things get to be a lot of data.

[@influenceocean1679]

@@MatthewGira Thanks Matthew!

[@ksbbeta]

How do we monetize it after building it?

[@MatthewGira]

Completely depends on your business model. Most likely integrating with stripe and going from there.

Which is best for creating a rideshare app like Uber?

[@MatthewGira]

Recreating something like Uber out of the gate probably isn't a great idea. If you want that type of complexity, Flutterflow might be able to do it? A ridesharing app has a lot of features to it (location, privacy, safety, etc.) that a lot of apps just don't need.

Can you build a high level app or are there any limits and constraints? like old spotify vs wordpress to give you an example?

If you're using Airtable as your backend, it would matter on the number of records allowed. That would apply to Glide and Adalo specifically. For Flutterflow, that has less limits since it's more of your traditional software app.
