The report card
Best for native iOS and Android apps with hosting included
GoodBarber builds native iOS and Android apps and web apps with no code, and hosting, push and updates are in the price. But the cheapest plan is a web app only, native apps start at Premium at €55 a month on yearly billing, and there is no free plan, only a 30-day trial.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | D | Content Standard is €30 a month yearly, but it makes a web app only. Native iOS and Android start at Premium, €55 a month yearly, well above the $20 this category charges in the middle. |
| Free plan and trial | C | A 30-day trial on every plan with no card needed. There is no free plan after it. |
| Features | B | Native apps and web apps, push, a shop, a chatbot, an extensions store and an AI extension builder. The listing names no gap in the job, only plan gates. |
| Ease of use | C | A no-code builder where you assemble the app yourself. No store rating on record. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web builder with Zapier, Make, WordPress, Squarespace, ChatGPT and Claude, and an MCP server. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who GoodBarber is for
- Fits if you want a native app for a business without hiring developers
- Works for agencies, as there is a reseller plan
Who it is not for
- Skip it if you want native apps on the cheapest plan, as Standard makes a web app only
- Pricey if you grow: Premium is €55, Pro €105 and Agency €215 a month on yearly billing
- Tight if you need space or push: extra storage is €2 per 10 GB and extra push €10 per 100K
- Watch out: no free plan, only a 30-day trial, and prices appear in the visitor's currency
- Watch out: Black Friday 50% off the first invoice needs a code and is not counted here
Good to know
Good for
- Publishers, course creators and event organizers who want their own app
- Retailers and restaurants launching a shopping or pickup app
- Agencies reselling white-label apps
Worth knowing
- Prices were read in euros because the page shows prices in the visitor's currency; the page's structured data lists USD figures that match the euro amounts.
- The cheapest content plan is a PWA only; native iOS and Android apps need Premium or higher.
- Extra storage costs €2 per 10 GB and extra push notifications €10 per 100K.
- A Black Friday promotion of 50% off the first invoice needs a code and is not counted here; one-time licenses also exist (Content Pro €4,600, Agency €12,000).

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace GoodBarber you would be making a tool that builds and hosts other apps. 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: 39 of the 89 other AI app builders grade higher. It costs $402.19 a year.
What you could not
- A tool that builds and hosts other apps.
- A builder that other people can use without writing code.
- Checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you.
- It plugs into other products, Zapier, Make and WordPress among them, and has an API.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. GoodBarber’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
