App design

5.0 3 months ago

Comments: I used the software to develop website applications and also development of mobile applications this is facts due to less coding it can be used by anyone so long as he or she has a knowledge about calling and development. The software has nice customer care service and well training experts who are ready to help people in completing their work successfully.

Pros:

Appy pie is is there to develop our application because the software requires less or no known coding

Cons:

It is not cheap to that extent that people of small businesses are not able to develop their web applications from this software because it is quite expensive to small businesses however that is expensive but it has all best features for the development of that web applications.

My experience with Appy Pie

4.0 4 years ago

Comments: 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!

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: 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.

Alternatives Considered: Appery.io

Good for starter

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: 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

3.0 2 years ago

Comments: 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

Alternatives Considered: OutSystems and Bubble

Reasons for Switching to Appy Pie: because of the online review

If they improve a few things, they could be great

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: 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 Pie Review

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: My experience with Appy pie has been very good, Even I have not been a long time paying customer I do have seen that they have improve a lot, but like 3 years ago there were not a lot of options of templates and the app templates seems to be outdated, but now they added new templates and made very impressive improvements

Pros:

Is very user friendly, I have use a lot of app builders and Appy Pie is one of the easiest

Cons:

For me personally I did not like that there no option for unlimited hosting, So I have to keep paying multiple times for each time the app bandwidth run out, also there no previous notification by email that the app is running out of bandwidth, I notice that I ran out of bandwidth because users send me message that their app was block.

Appy Pie

5.0 last year

Comments: Appy pie enables me to produce completely separate versions of some websites I design. This helps me in many ways and sometimes enables me to close extra sales from the same client.For me, there is nothing more exciting and enthusiastic than being able to develop and design an app without having to write long lines of weird codes ( its soaks) and Appy Pie makes it 100% possible.

Pros:

Appy Pie is my best no-code app design environment. It's simple and supports the drag & drop feature which is very responsive. Designing an app with Appy Pie is the same as creating a website, however, the difference is that with Appy Pie, there's almost no need for CSS or HTML codes. The UI is very responsive and frankly, this app is worth 10/10

Cons:

I enjoy the quality of templates Appy Pie offers but don't really appreciate the quality of stock images available. I think Appy Pie should improve its stock quality for those who've been used to working with HQ stock from Istock and the rest.There should be an in-app integration of a sort, that way- the user will easily search or import better stock images or videos from a better provider.

I never think of building professional APP without learning abc of app building.

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: Happy to have my first app published on Google Play and soon I will start making money also.Its good and I personally find it very helpful to me ,as I was searching for tools like this which can help me doing such things because of some busy schedule I am not able to make time to study and working hands on new technology. Appypie really helpful in developing app which I dreamt off.

Pros:

Easy to use Interface and almost all the features are added which we require to build a professional app.At First I tried it making my personal biographic app GOPALA because upto then I am not sure or in other word don't have faith in appypie that it can be provide functionality like pro.But no sooner than I completed my first app I gone for 'ecommerce' and its working fine on Google Play. "Store" is The feature that I love most and I think you too.It has given new life to my app not only it grown my business but also given complete command over customer information and inventory management.

Cons:

All of sudden they increases cost of their plan. Any way if they clear it earlier it will ok for service they providing. And one more thing that I missing so many time when I need to make hyperlink to the image or certain text ,even I searched on help there no answer about Hyperlink.

Great experience with technical support! Fast and very prompt is solving any issue!

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: Very easy to use. It doesn't take no time to use and create an app. Very friendly features.

Pros:

Software is easy to use and the features are great. No matter what type of app you need Appy Pie has it covered with all the features it offers. If you have any trouble or need help with any feature, just send technical support an e-mail. They are very prompt to your request. Never had a problem with the software. If the app ever needs to be rebuilt because of updates or changes which it will. In no time at all Appy Pie has it done, sends you a test link to see if you like it and if so they resubmit to app stores. It's fast and simple to create and to get your app up and running.

Cons:

I can not think of anything negative to say about this software. Never had any problems using or creating an app.

Pros:

I like the many choices you get in the templates. They software makes it easy to design. Whenever I have a question the online chat is my best option. The guys are friendly and very fast to respond. The issue is usually resolved in minutes.

Cons:

I can't think of anything I don't like about the software. I think it would be cool to offer an option for a video splash screen when loading.
