Best for free Android apps built with blocks
Kodular is a browser builder for Android apps, where you lay out screens and program with blocks, then download the APK. Premium is €3.99 a month, but it builds Android apps only, shows no iOS output and no AI app generation, and the free plan limits projects and blocks monetization.
Who Kodular is for
- Fits if you want to make an Android app without writing code and pay little
- Works for learners who would rather snap blocks together than type code
Who Kodular is not for
- Skip it if you need an iOS app, as the site mentions no iOS output
- Not for you if you want an AI to build the app from a description, as the pages show none
- Tight if you stay free: 10 projects, 10 MB of assets and 5 extensions each, and no monetization
- Watch out: Monetize charges a €15 one-time activation plus usage-based pricing
Why Kodular gets a 2.6
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- AValue for moneyPremium is €3.99 a month, or €40.99 a year, well under the $9 that is 60% of what the cheapest quarter pays. Free covers 10 projects.
- BFree plan and trialFree gives 10 projects, 10 MB of assets and 5 extensions per project, with ads shown in the editor and not in your app. One person could build a small app on that.
- CFeaturesVisual designer, block programming, APK builds, QR sharing and cloud projects. Android only, no AI generation, and monetization is a €15 activation plus usage fees.
- CEase of useA web builder where the work is laying out screens and wiring blocks. No store rating on record.
- CPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, and it makes Android apps only. No integrations are listed.

Keep Kodular, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Kodular 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.
It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.6 is higher than 67 of the 89 other AI app builders we grade. It costs $45.79 a year.
What you could not
- A tool that builds and hosts other apps.
- A builder that other people can use without writing code.
What this rests on. Kodular’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.
