Appy Pie is a no-code builder for Android and iOS apps with an AI app generator, priced per app from $16 a month on Android only. iOS needs the $60 Platinum plan, the store fees are extra, and removing its branding is an add-on at twice the plan price. - **Value for money: D.** Basic is $16 a month per app but Android only; iOS needs Platinum at $60 a month, well above this category's $20 middle. - **Free plan and trial: C.** A 7-day trial for personal, non-commercial use. The page does not say whether a card is needed. No free plan. - **Features: C.** Prompt-to-app, modules, store publishing and push notifications. The listing's gaps: iOS only on Platinum, and caps on downloads from 500 to 2,000 a month. - **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record, and you build and publish your own app. - **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web builder; the apps it makes are for Android and iOS, with just Google Analytics and AdMob listed.

That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 80 of the 89 other AI app builders grade higher. It costs $192 a year. - You could not: A tool that builds and hosts other apps. - You could not: A builder that other people can use without writing code. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
