Which one is for you

- Makes sense if you resell apps and want the reseller programme
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you want iOS, as it needs Platinum at $60 a month per app
- Pricey if you build several apps, since each app is another subscription
- Watch out: Apple's $99 a year and Google's one-time $25 fee are extra
- Watch out: removing Appy Pie branding is an add-on priced at 2x the plan
Pick FlutterFlow if
- Fits if you want a native mobile app without hand-writing it
- Makes sense if one person builds and a few testers try it
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you stay free: 2 projects, 1 editor and no branches
- Pricey if you add people: extra seats are $55 on Pro and $85 on Max at monthly billing
- Watch out: AI usage is a shared allowance shown as a percentage, with refills on Pro and Max only
- Watch out: real-time collaboration needs Pro at $60 a month billed yearly

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
