Easy & Simple to use and "Go Live" on Google Play Store.
Less Design options. More functions to added.
Communicating with consumers
The no coding features of appy pie makes it very easy to create an app.
We are having a bit of trouble with communicating for the tech team. So if we can look at that it would be great.
They are willing to help me with some of the features that they do not have, but adding it to my app in order to make it easier for my users to use. This is something you will not find anywhere I have searched before.
Live updating of app interface, lots of modules, customization is flexible and vast. really great customer service, by far the best price to host an app for my school and still be able to edit and modify it myself.
A couple items don't have the flexibility to be turned on/off or modified, but there are work-arounds. Standard fonts often cause issues with consistency across devices, so use google fonts
Simple, efficient, cost-effective way to provide an app to my community
The ability to customize the app to fit my needs, and the premium app features they offer are good for start ups who want to prove their business plan. This is not a solution for all people, but for us it seems to work great. Appypie does have decent chat support and they are always online, if it wasn't for the chat support this product would not be worth it.
The bugs and the price. To me, I don't think it should cost so much since I had to do ll the work setting it up, and they still haven't fixed many of the bugs and errors.
We have just started this business but think that an app will help us with increasing orders.
It's easy to use. I like how it is drag and drop with no code
customer assistance can be difficult. It really depends on the agent you get
customer outreach
The chat line is helpful to communicate in.
It is hard to communicate at a time at times on the chat line.
Uploading my app and the process of helping with codes.
Easy implementation of applications for android and IOS
There isn´t report of when updates will be implemented and neither what has been improved in the update
speed and flexibility in being able to make changes
The software has a lot of features and capabilities and once you understand how it is set up, it is pretty easy to navigate. The Test Lab is a great feature!
The app-as-a-website is terrible on a desktop, although it looks fine on a mobile device (which makes sense because it is similar to the app layout). But it really needs to be stronger on the desktop since a lot of people still use computers. And it needs to have ability to link to the app in the stores on the website to encourage people to download the app. Tech support is okay. The people are responsive, but the problems are not solved very efficiently so there's a lot of waiting and back-and-forth emails. It would be great if the tech team could do screen shares to see what is going on rather than the very time consuming screen grabs and video recordings.
Honestly, it's hard to get people to download the apps. For some reason, they aren't used to having them. Trying to make sure the content on the app is usable and friendly is also challenging. The app does look slick though and in general gets a good reaction.
Overall a very good platform with a lot of functionality for basic to intermediate apps. Appy Pie service is also quite good. Usually, they will try to find a solution for any issues you may be having.
Sometimes I have to ask the same question over and over to Appy Pie support. I only get a response when a ticket is raised. There are sometimes misinterpretations between myself and support staff, but overall they are persistent and good at fixing issues you keep up the communication.
I need an app for my shopping concierge/courier business.
Appy Pie is great for simple apps. When things get more difficult it can be hard to bridge the language barrier and timezones. You also have to place a lot of trust in strangers. However if you are okay with this and are willing to do your own research on some things then I recommend appy pie as they get the job done. Cherry is an excellent representative.
The language barrier can be frustrating.
I am able to create my own app based business and have it published to Android and iOS
I like the variety of features that they have from forums to polls to websites. I like how it helps publish to app stores. The best part of this app is the price point - it is so much more affordable to build an app than paying for a developer. This is great especially for small-businesses, start-ups, or students. You don't need any coding experience, however, you do have the ability to customize.
The user interface could be better. Also, I have had problems with their support tab not showing up. Also, when I contacted their customer support I felt like it took awhile to get my issue addressed and some were not addressed. Also, the app does not appear very modern - it's very basic with not a ton of customization.
Civic engagement with young people - haven't published but it's great for my independent study as a student and co-founder. It's been great to quickly make our minimum viable product whereas otherwise it would have taken us months to code or find and recruit and work with a student developer.
great technical team and willing to find the solution to your problems, and they did find solutions to all my problems.
the time difference causes late night appointments if you need help with the tech team, (depending on your location) some of the more advanced features are only included with a higher priced monthly fee.
still working on the solution and with out knowing coding myself I do not believe it will be solved with what is available. (well) it can be available but still not the solution I am looking for, but close. benefit: I should be able to share this with friends and family through creating "groups" of people with their emails.
The development interface is super easy to use. Plus the customer support to get it launched made it totally risk free and very affordable. Totally risk free. Easy to use. Intuitive user interface. Convenient features. Numerous layouts, themes, design styles makes Appy Pie really convenient for any business to quickly develop an app. I never even considered being able to afford it let alone do it myself, but with Appy Pie it was easy and it really made some heads turn internally at our company
I wish developing apps was a seamless process for both iOS and Android instead of seperate. I understand the software is different, etc but it is cumbersome and a one solution fits all would be really nice. There does appear to be an API glitch with YouTube. Despite entering a valid URL channel, the system was unable to produce any data. We tried as a URL, playlist, user, etc but were unable to direct it to anything but a single video when directing to our actual channel would be preferred.
We are the first in our market to develop a mobile app. It reinforces our position as a thought leader that is innovative and always on the lookout on how to better connect with our customers and audience. By developing a mobile app, we were able to capitalize on some of the prestige associated with our audience being able to take us with them wherever they go.
I was able to create the app and test on my mobile. The best was being able to test immediately
Backend server configuration and logic not present
Launch App quickly to Appstore
Creating the app was easy, and AppyPie support assisted greatly in the process for ease of use.
There were some challenges with the app file type (apk/aab), but AppyPie Support assisted efficiently and in a timeous way, so it wasn't a concern.
AppyPie assisted me, in creating a subscription platform for the followers of Styling company. It has really given alot of structure to our business and tutorials.
One of the best features of AppyPie is how many functions it allows you to give your app. With AppyPie, you can do everything from adding videos, to live streams, to blogs, to podcasts. These were all features I dreamed of having in my app, but I figured I'd be unable to do due to my lack of coding experience. AppyPie made it easy, and it works!
The one downfall of AppyPie is having to "Save & Continue" after every change while in the editing process. A few times I did not do this, and then a handful of my changes would be lost. "Save & Continue" also brings you back to the homepage, so a lot of time is wasted going between saving and editing.
We are able to bring our gym to our client's phones while we are closed due to the pandemic. This ease of use has encouraged many of our members to stay training with us, and we are excited to bring more value to the people we serve.
As a Developer AND Reseller of various platforms, I have found that Appy Pie has the widest selection of integratable and cutting edge features! There are plenty of inte Also their in-app communications and user management is quite advanced and offers a flexible and powerful mobile marketing platform.
Appy Pie is very limited on design selections. Also their client management system on the backend needs more flexibility based on customer needs.
I am helping my clients solve problems of increasing their sales, have more efficient mobile marketing communications channels and expanding their prospecting efforts.
How easy it was to setup the platform and their online support is really good and swift.
Some instructions could be written more clearly
Engagement with the students at our University
If you are running any sizable company, you would probably really benefit form a app for iPhones and Android users. Appy Pie has let us make straight forward apps for our media company that have great functionality and help build our brand. It has been a great way for me to dive into creating apps without learning a bunch of code and starting from scratch.
I'd love more flexibility within the app for layout and functionality. I'd like to place things graphically, like for a website.
We have been able to great and all inclusive app that streams all of our radio stations and links social media content.
