What will you make?
From idea to App Store.
Describe it, we build it
Tell Angelfish what your app does and who it's for. A first version appears in minutes and runs live in your browser.
Test it on your iPhone
Try it free in your browser as it's built. With Apple's developer membership, your app is on your iPhone in about a minute, and every change you ask for follows in seconds.
Publish to the App Store
Add a subscription in one sentence. We check your app against Apple's rules, write your listing, and submit it.
Everything your app runs on, included
No separate hosting, servers or databases to buy and set up. Angelfish runs everything behind your app for you, from sign-in and subscriptions to AI and your data, and keeps it backed up.
Sign in with Apple and email, set up the way Apple requires, including account deletion. Nothing to configure.
Your app, your code, your data.
You own everything you build with Angelfish. Download your code and your app's database whenever you like. It's standard SQLite, so it runs anywhere.
Hold it before you believe it.
The first time your app opens on your own iPhone changes everything. Angelfish gets you there without Xcode, a Mac or a cable: open a link on your iPhone and your app is there in about a minute, and every change after that arrives in seconds. It needs Apple’s developer membership, $99 a year, which every app on the App Store needs anyway.
Start free. Pay when you're building for real.
Questions
I can't code. Can I still do this?
You don't need to. You describe your app in plain English and watch it get built. If you can send a text message, you can do this.
Do I need a Mac?
No. Everything runs in your browser on any computer. Your app reaches your iPhone through a link you open in Safari on the phone, with no cable, once you've joined Apple's developer programme.
Do I have to pay Apple?
Not to build, or to try your app in your browser. To put it on your own iPhone or publish it, you need Apple's developer membership: Apple charges $99 a year to publish any app, and there's no way around it. Join and your app is on your iPhone in about a minute, and every change appears in seconds.
Will Apple approve my app?
We build to Apple’s rules and check your app against them before you submit. Nobody can guarantee approval, but most rejections come from a short list of mistakes we prevent.
Do I own it?
Yes. Your app, your code, your data, your App Store account and your customers. Download your code and your app's database at any time. The database is standard SQLite, so it runs anywhere.
How much does it cost to run?
Your plan covers your first live app. Every live app includes its hosting, database, sign-in, file storage and daily backups, and a set number of people a month. The only extras are more live apps, people and storage beyond what your live apps include, and AI in your app (on paid plans), billed by use and only if your app uses it. Your apps never stop for going over, and we tell you if they do.
