course app builder · Updated 24 September 2026
A course app builder for tutors, trainers and schools
A course app builder should give your learners somewhere to follow the course, not just a list of videos. The Courses & Learning template is a finished learning app with lessons, quizzes and notes, and the Classroom template keeps a teacher, a tutoring centre or a club in touch with parents. Both are standard templates, free to make yours, on iPhone and Android.
Templates to start from
Courses with lessons, progress tracking and end-of-module quizzes.
Made for a tutor selling an online course, a yoga or fitness instructor with a programme to teach, a training provider onboarding staff and a coach with a curriculum.
Does not take payments for courses and include a course editor in the app (the catalogue is loaded behind the scenes).
- ClassroomFree
Teacher–parent communication: announcements, homework, messages.
Made for a primary school teacher talking to parents, a tutoring centre, a nursery or after-school club and a sports coach with a squad of parents.
Does not record grades or attendance and collect fees.
Who each one suits
- Courses & Learning: a tutor with an online course, a yoga or fitness instructor with a programme, a training provider onboarding staff, a coach with a curriculum.
- Classroom: a primary school teacher talking to parents, a tutoring centre, a nursery or after-school club, a sports coach with a squad of parents.
What they leave out
Neither takes payments. Courses & Learning has no course editor inside the app: the catalogue is loaded behind the scenes, and changes to it are asked for in chat. Classroom does not record grades or attendance. If one of those is central, request it as a change and test it before your learners rely on it.
What it costs
- 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.
Plans: Basic is $5 (£3.99) a month with 50 credits, Pro is $19 (£14.99) a month with 250 credits, Business is $49 (£36.99) a month with 1000 credits. 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). Full pricing.

- Can I sell my course in the app?
- Not in the template as it is: it does not take payments. A payment step is a change to request, using your own payment provider.
- Is there an app for teachers to talk to parents?
- Yes. The Classroom template is built for a teacher, tutoring centre or club keeping in touch with parents. It does not record grades or attendance.
