Now Modelence App Builder has support for creating native mobile apps. Just like web apps, describe what you want and get a fully working mobile app, working in sync with your Modelence auth and backend.
Hey PH 👋
Aram and Eduard here, co-founders of Modelence.
Earlier we launched the App Builder to get to a fully working web app with auth and database in just a few minutes.
Today the App Builder ships mobile apps too.
This is one of the top things our users kept asking for. The people getting the most out
of Modelence are building real business tools: booking systems, internal ops dashboards, compliance and CRM tooling. And the moment their web app worked, the next question was: "can my team use this on their phone?". Now they can, from the same prompt and the same codebase - one description generates both web and native, with a shared backend.
It's still real code on an open-source framework. You can open it, read it, extend it by hand, and take it with you.
Who it's for: domain experts and technical operators who've hit the ceiling with other app builders that don't go beyond prototypes, and want production-grade apps without standing up infrastructure themselves.
It's still new, so please tell us what's missing, what breaks, and what you would want to see in mobile support next.
Appreciate your support 🙌
Love the direction here! Building apps should be about bringing ideas to life, not getting stuck in repetitive setup and boilerplate. Modelence looks like a promising step toward making app creation much faster and more accessible. Congrats on the launch, and best of luck! 🚀
@1mirul Thank you. You put it perfectly: bringing ideas to life, not fighting boilerplate. That is exactly what we are going for. Appreciate the support 🙌
@suryansh_tiwari2 thanks, and yes as long as your intention is to keep parity, the same prompt will do it - they are both in the same codebase, which is convenient.

Hey, Does the mobile builder support both iOS and Android out of the box?
@thys_beesman yes, we use Expo under the hood, which supports both Android and iOS

Excited for the mobile app functionality. Been using Claude Code but the idea of creating my own mobile apps is awesome. Congrats Aram and Eduard! ~James
Thanks, James! The nice part versus pure Claude Code is that Modelence Mobile connects straight to your web app backend and DB, so your web, Android, and iOS apps all sit on the same database. Having everything in one place makes it much easier to build and ship. Would love to see what you make with it.

Been building a real app on Modelence, a World Cup pool with live scores, a leaderboard, and bracket predictions, and it holds up as a production app, not a prototype.
Two things stood out. I built the web version first, and the mobile app came off the same codebase and backend, so auth and every query just worked across both with no rebuilding anything twice. And since the backend, deployment, and monitoring are handled for you, I could stay on the product instead of wiring up infrastructure. It's still real code on an open framework too, so I can open it and extend by hand when I want.
I'm not a developer and still got to a real web and mobile app fast. Congrats on the mobile launch, excited to see where it goes.
@david_buniatyan Thanks! It uses Expo & React Native, this way it goes along with the all-in-one nature of the framework, so it's all part of the same project/codebase.
@david_buniatyan Thanks! The mobile apps are also built using the Modelence framework https://github.com/modelence/modelence, which is based on TypeScript. So on mobile, the stack is React Native rather than native Swift/Java. That keeps one shared codebase and backend across web, iOS, and Android.

Got a basic CRUD app running in about ten minutes, and actually being able to poke at the generated code after is the part that sold me.
been following since the web app builder launch and the pace here is great! congrats, team! domain experts who arent full devs are exactly the right people to aim at, most of them have hit the prototype ceiling 10x over. excited to see whats next on mobile 🚀
Congrats on the launch! Are there any tips-and-tricks on how to create/maintain the strict design system of the app, how to export/share it with web, or how your tool manages it?
@nikitaeverywhere both mobile and web apps are stored in a single monorepo, so they can share a single style guide. The design style guide is generated as the first step before making the applications.

Can the same prompt really maintain feature parity between web and mobile? That's impressive if it works consistently

@hector_hulian1 thanks for being an active user!
Congrats on the launch! are the mobile apps built natively (Swift/Java) or use React Native?
