Your next app.
On your phone. For free.

Glassly (glassly.dev) is an AI mobile app builder for iOS and Android. Start from a ready-made template for free, or describe your own app on any paid plan. It writes the screens and the backend, shows a web preview as it works, and makes signed builds you install on your phone, then store builds for the App Store and Google Play. Change it later by asking in chat. AI creation and changes use credits: Basic is $5 a month with 50 credits, and every paid plan includes the same build and launch tools.

Standard templates are free to claim and make yours: pick the colours, add your own icon or logo and preview it on the web, with sign-in, a database and file storage already working. Free accounts get 5 native builds to install on your phone, and 5 AI credits to try changes in chat. A free app keeps its template’s name. Your app’s own name comes with any plan. Building your own idea from a description needs a plan. Premium templates cost credits at claim, and each one shows its price before you spend anything. Free apps run on our starter backend. It sleeps after an hour without use and wakes when the app is opened, holds up to 250 MB, and after 60 days needs moving to your own Supabase project (Supabase has a free plan). You get a week’s notice and we guide the move. No card is needed to start. For iPhone installs through Glassly, connect your own Apple developer account (standard fee $99/year, paid to Apple). Android installs from a link, subject to device permissions and developer verification. Publishing on Google Play needs your own developer account ($25 once, paid to Google).

Yes. Upload your own logo for free, or choose an icon style when starting from a template. You can also generate an original icon in your app workspace: choose Your name & icon. The current credit price is shown before you generate, and you choose whether to apply the result. You can replace the icon later in app settings; the new icon ships with the next native build.

No coding knowledge is required. Pick a template or describe what you want, then ask for changes the same way. You can also download the source project if you or a developer want to work with the code.

Yes. They are installable builds, compiled and signed on Glassly's machines, not a website in a wrapper. You also get a web preview in your browser while the app is being built.

No. The code is written, compiled and signed on Glassly's machines, including for iPhone apps. You need a web browser and your phone. There is nothing to install.

Lovable focuses on web apps. Bolt also supports native mobile projects through Expo, with Expo tooling for builds and publishing. Glassly includes a managed backend and handles compiling, signing and delivering iOS and Android builds on its own machines. Start with a standard template, free, then ask for changes in chat. You still supply your own developer accounts where required.

Not to start. Your first apps run on Glassly's managed starter backend, with accounts, database and file storage. Connect your own Supabase project for production or store builds, integration secrets, or when you outgrow the starter limits. We guide the move across; your own project's hosting may have separate costs.

You do, and you choose when. Apps with an admin side never hand it to whoever signs up first, and no email address gets it automatically. You create your account inside your own app like anyone else, then open Who runs it in the app's settings on Glassly and make your account the admin with one tap. You can add or remove admins from the same page any time.

AI creation and changes. Native build runs are unlimited while subscribed and do not spend AI credits. Standard templates are free to claim, and credits pay for the work on top: your changes in chat, remixes, and apps built from your own description. Premium templates cost credits at claim, which buys the whole finished app. Plans differ only in how many credits they include, and every plan puts your own name on the app. Every plan builds the same apps the same way, and you can move up a plan when you run low.

Yes. iPhone store builds are uploaded to App Store Connect for you and tracked until they are on TestFlight, ready to submit, and Glassly can set up the App Store subscriptions your app sells. Android store builds come out as the signed bundle Google Play asks for; you upload it in the Play Console yourself (Google does not let a tool publish for you), and we hand you the links the forms need. What stays with you: the developer accounts (Apple $99 a year, Google $25 once, paid to them, because both stores require an identified publisher), creating the app’s page in App Store Connect (Apple offers no way to do it for you), the store listing, privacy and age-rating answers, and pressing submit for review. New personal Google Play accounts also run a closed test with 12 testers for 14 days before going public. Store builds run on your own Supabase project.

Yes, as often as you like. Open your app and ask, for example “make it our club colours” or “add a tip jar”. Glassly updates the preview, and the copy installed on your own phone follows the changes as you make them. Testers and the stores get the next build you make. AI changes use credits.

Yes to both. You own your prompts and generated apps; Glassly claims no ownership of the code. In settings, “Download my project” exports an Expo (React Native) source project, free on every plan. It includes the app code, native config, dependencies and README, plus database schema and server functions when accessible. Follow the README to configure services and run it with developer tools. Live database records, uploaded user files and secret credentials need separate backup or configuration; the source download is not a full data backup.

$5 a month (£3.99 in the UK) is the Basic subscription, with 50 credits for building and changing. It includes planning, screens, code, the managed backend, native builds, signing and delivery. Standard templates stay free, with unlimited native builds while subscribed and no per-app fee, and your own name on the app is part of the plan. Developer-account fees and any external services you choose are separate. For iPhone installs through Glassly, connect your own Apple developer account (standard fee $99/year, paid to Apple). Android installs from a link, subject to device permissions and developer verification. Publishing on Google Play needs your own developer account ($25 once, paid to Google). You can cancel any time.
