Need an iOS app urgently but don’t know how to code and can’t hire professionals? There are better solutions than looking for a free employee or learning to program yourself. Flipabit is the app builder that allows you to build apps without knowing how to code. If you only need an ad hoc application, it can save you more effort, time, and money than you might expect.
It’s similar to building a brick house, or if you prefer, building a location in Minecraft or Roblox. The idea is the same: instead of writing the code manually, you combine your snippets visually like bricks and the quotes in the code are placed where they belong automatically. This makes building apps accessible even to those who don’t have experience in the field.
To start building an app with Flipabit, you need to absorb the concept of widgets, which is well explained in the tutorials. Behind any element of the application interface, there is a widget. A header? A gadget. An article? A set of widgets, one for the title, one for the image and one for the body, and more for the social media buttons. A weather pictogram that changes with the forecast? A widget too. They are all widgets.
To create the user interface of your app, you need to add the background and then a widget for each of your elements. They can be grouped, so some groups can be scrolled horizontally or vertically while others stay in place. Widgets can contain both static and dynamic data, and some of them can be set to depend on others.
Video tutorials show how to build apps with these widgets. It explains how you position them to create your user interface, how you group widgets and create lists to create scrolling sequences, and how you get data from external sources if needed. And it will be necessary because your application is likely to be just a front-end solution to a more sophisticated complex.
Publishing your applications
Unfortunately, Apple doesn’t allow you to install apps from third-party services (and that’s unlikely to change anytime soon). So, along with Flipabit, you will need a personal or developer account. However, if you really need your app on iPhone, the price may be affordable, given the money and effort you can save with Flipabit.
The process of creating an account and receiving the necessary certificates is well described and illustrated on the Flipabit website. So it just takes some time and an explorer’s mindset for you to succeed and become an iOS developer. You still don’t know how to program!
What applications can be made with Flipabit?
Although app builders are often considered limited and primitive, this is not the case with Flipabit. With it, you can easily create different types of applications, including weather applications (the example shown in the official tutorials), magazines and guides, interactive 3D maps, audio and video players. It demonstrates the power of the platform that allows its users to create various applications.
What applications may be urgently needed? These can include corporate messengers and calendars, online stores, magazines, books and newspapers, etc. These are pretty easy to do with Flipabit. The platform supports interactive elements, push notifications, two-way data integration, etc. Implementing these components is quite easy and well explained on the Flipabit site.
But it is capable of more. For example, Flipabit supports impressive 3D models, including anatomy atlases and small maps, which represent sophisticated objects in interactive ways. It sounds even more fantastic than being able to create drafts in Sketch and export them to Flipabit. So if you have already collected a library of unusual visual ideas, you can try them out in your mobile apps.
The ways you benefit from Flipabit
If you decide to make your app with Flipabit, you can benefit in more than one way. The advantages of Flipabit are the following:
- Less effort and time to build an app. You still need to develop your design and user interface, but it becomes much easier with Flipabit’s tools.
- Unlimited attempts. With Flipabit, you can easily make mistakes and fix them in the same project.
- Publishing tools. It becomes easier to publish your apps on the App Store and receive all the necessary certificates. However, you will still need a developer account.
- Easy test. Its test environment on a real iOS device is available under Apple’s TestFlight program. You just need to send potential testers a developer invite.
- An affordable ticket to iOS development. After discovering what you can do with Flipabit, you may decide to dig deeper and become a “real” developer. Still, Flipabit is still hard to overestimate when you need an ad hoc app in no time.
Given all this, using Flipabit often makes more sense than hiring “serious” developers to simply reinvent the wheel. It’s good enough to do trivial (and sometimes non-trivial) applications.
Last but not least: Flipabit pays a lot of attention to support. All app creation stages are well documented and explained. There are video tutorials on how to create interfaces, link objects, connect applications to external data sources, and publish them. Finally, there is a forum where you can ask any kind of question. Flipabit is not completely bug free, but the developers admit these bugs and try their best to fix them in the next updates.
What does the creation of applications with Flipabit require?
The first thing needed to make an app is a clear understanding of its functions and purpose. You need to see the way it’s supposed to be used, so you can develop the most suitable interface. Then you have to use your imagination to come up with the best way to arrange the bricks. And of course, design elements need to be created so that they can be inserted into the user interface. As for coding, knowing a little HTML and a little SQL is welcome, but you can figure it out as you go.
If this is your first experience with an app builder, we hope you enjoy it and let your creature do its job. What do you think of app builders as a class? Have you worked with Flipabit or any other app building service? And what do you think of them? Share your opinion in the comments. Or share this on Facebook or Twitter for your friends to read and talk about. Thanks in advance!
