Pineapple - Website Builder
reviews and complaints

I have always wanted to develop apps for iOS, and this app has helped my dream come true!

I am definitely keeping this app

Just one thing, it’s be great if the devs could add more actions, such as saving images, notifications, etc… to this app.

Overall an amazing app, which I look forward to more and more functionality being added soon!

I have tried several apps like this, but this one is the best. It’s so easy to learn how to make your app it takes less than one day to learn how to use all of the cool gadgets. It’s fun and straight forward. But this is just a idea, what if you made it’s so that you can post your game into the app so that way other creators can see or use you app.

Great concept! It’s the xCode of iPad but so much easier. It may lack several advanced features, but by being creative you can work around many of these limitations. This is the app developers have always and needed, and it’s the way to go for more developers to start using devices such as iPad for coding and I can’t wait to start exploring more with it!

The app offers very limited functionality even with payed features. I can’t see anyone creating a real app with it. Especially that you need a Mac to finish everything. I know developers can’t make it all work on iPad, but still app is useless this way. Payed subscription is unreasonable for what app can offer. In general I don’t think that any software for development can be subscription based.

I downloaded this app because I knew NOTHING about coding but I really wanted to make my own app. When I made my own app using pineapple, I had to go do something so I exited out of pineapple. When I went back in, my progress was gone! I also remember sending a file to myself in iMessages. When I tried to open the file, it didn’t work. I would like to know if anyone else has had the same problem.

I love this app it’s so easy to make apps so far I’ve made ten and I’ve had it for 4 hours one thing though I don’t know if they look at they’d review but I wish you could send to people to down load or so you can down load that’s my only thing about this app that I don’t like because other than that this app is awesome amazing so cool I love it but remember one things I don’t like and that’s why I give this app just 4 stars

A huge limitation that wasn’t immediately apparent to me is the inability to run generated apps on the iPhone. First attempted app was to change text upon pressing a button. There is no action for loading a static text field. Next attempt was to simply show the local power company outage map. I think it went quite easily until I ran up against the iPhone limitation, so I don’t know if it works. Pineapple is an interesting app, but not ready to go to work.

This app is great for people new to designing apps! However, there are some key features on here that Xcode has that would make this app the BEST APP EVER! For starters, full screen mode. My login screen requires full screen because of the buttons on the edge of the screen

This app is amazing and with a few minor improvements it’ll be my FAVORITE APP! Props to the developers for this amazing app and I hope in the future they add some more key features!

When i try do delete something, it crashes the app. Also, the amount of things you can do with the free subscription is very limited. Please make more stuff free, like the web view. Also actions are very limited. You can’t even make an app that changes the color of the background! And lasty, you actually need to pay money just to export it as an Xcode or even a swift playgrounds project, and it does not have any way to publish apps directly to the app store. I hate this app.

This app is so easy to use and looks stunning! As of right now, there is a small bug with the roundify option, the border doesn’t round so it looks kinda weird.

This app is great if you want want buttons that just change the screen, web viewers and maps. The react input doesn’t do anything yet but I’m HOPING (hint hint Pineapple) that I could some how make a login service or a search function with the text input...This app is amazing and it’s perfect for mobile app design in a mobile device.

When I downloaded this app, It blew my mind how easy it was to create an app with no code at all. I have used Xcode for a little while and this was mind blowing because I was capable of doing things I would be able to do only by spending tons of time writing code and boring myself out. It is an amazing software for ones who don’t like to waste time writing the code manually, but I do have to complain that it lacks templates and tends to crash sometimes. Other than that, I loved the app and all it’s features

I really love this app, I’m creating the basics of an app now and loving it so far. Very limited at the moment of things to work with but the possibilities are almost endless. I CANT WAIt till the next update! Absolutely adore the set up of this app.

!~~> I think they should add a fill in text box that saves login info or has the action that uses a certain word as a trigger and the causes another screen to show.
UPDATE->>>Also! Need to add swipe triggers and a way to download the game to the phone

As a fnaf lover, I like all kinds of stuff...cats...games...etc. so...I’m not that good at this, you see, I don’t do stuff that needs a lot of work usually, so it would be nice if you could mabye...make an easy mode for some people that have just got the game, like me? If so that would be GREAT! Thank you. Also, if you can’t play other people’s apps or games, please make that a feature too, i don’t know if it’s already in-game or something like that so I’ll try to see.

This app is very good for beginners in my opinion. I love all the different parts of this app, and I like the simplicity of it.

The one thing is that I keep getting kicked out of the app in the middle of a project, and it doesn’t save! I think this is probably a problem with the app, because I have the latest iPad air with not too many apps.

This app has great potential, but the lag is sort of a dealbreaker. I see this has only been happening for me, so I fully recommend this to any beginner who can’t/doesn’t know how to code!

I preordered this app awhile back and downloaded it when I got the order notification, and it’s not that bad. It’s clearly in the early stages , and it may not be perfect, but it’s a start.

Features You Must Add Eventually:
-More actions/“blocks”

-New buttons and functions

-An intuitive tutorial, since this app seems to be aimed at young beginners learning coding fundamentals (correct me if I’m wrong).

-Smoother animations can create a much better feel to the app.

I can’t wait to see what features are coming soon, a nice app with great potential.

I really wanted to like this app, but for the app I’m trying to create it falls really short. For one it says there are templates that can be shared, I assumed there would be templates to browse, but there wasn’t any I could find. You cannot make shapes, though they have said they are working on it. I specifically want to be able to add things like calendars and schedulers, so either templates or the ability to build them from scratch would make me happy. I am keeping this on my device since I know there will be future updates, but right now it only seems capable of very simple text apps.

Despite having potential to being highly useful, its had potential for long enough and its still a buggy mess. Resizing elements can be difficult, if not impossible in some instincts. Especially when nested. It's relatively lackluster and feels empty, yet certain elements simply dont work. Moving elements is clunky and weird. Editing elements can be buggy, such as being unable to edit sub-elements, sub elements deleting themselves randomly, and navigations that seem to break. As someone who payed for this software, I recommend skipping this software until the developers fix these basic issues. Seems like they've had these issues for a long time.

I love this app, it’s awesome. But why only 3 screens? I think the pricing for premium is perfectly fine, $60/yr or $30 your first year is a good deal, but I’m not getting premium for a little while, so I’d prefer 100% instead of 3 screens without premium, it was 10. Please, this would be amazing! This app is good but that 3 screens without premium ruins it for me. Or make like codes that are hidden in the app or on some sort of social media that give you a week of free premium, and whatever app you made with that premium, stays the same, instead of deleting it or something. Or some games have “Follow us on (app) for a reward!” It makes it easier for people who cannot buy premium, but premium useful still, so you’ll still make some money. I would love this 100%, thanks for reading.

The title of this app is misleading. It says you can make “apps” and that’s what tricked me, I thought you can make actual apps instead of documents, but that was just me. Instead of making “apps” you make documents, where you can add photos and videos (the video function doesn’t work very well, it just says “compressing” and then kicks you out of the app), and you can add text, so I think it’s probably more of a presentation/document creator, not an app creator, but that’s fine. It has great potential, just you can’t do much with it, but if you have ideas for an presentation thing this is a great app to use, despite the whole “app” thing, the only downside really is that you have to pay for a LOT of stuff, the devs are kinda greedy, but the navigation is quite simple. So, it’s more of a presentation/document maker than an “app” creator. I don’t want you to be disappointed when it turns out to be this way, so please don’t download if you think you will make an app and post it on the Google store and App Store like I did, thank you for reading this really stupid and pointless review, but yeah.

You can’t do anything without gold. It’s just a cash grab

I really don’t get how you use it so until this thing gets a tutorial I’m gone.

It would be a fine app if i could use it without my work disappearing every 7 minutes or so.

When I go to the video box, then press my video, it says, compressing. Then it does nothing. Help

ITS HORIBALLL I CANT EVEN FINISH AN APP CUZ IT KEEPS FREEZING THAN WHEN I RESTART THE APP ALL DATA IS LOST

when I downloaded it I kind of thought it would be good but it will only let me make three things YOU CAN NOT MAKE A APP LIKE THIS!

This is a great start, but not really a complete solution yet. The available actions are so limited you can’t really do anything useful.

So I Was Having A Lot Of Fun Doing This It Was Gonna Be My Favorite App Until It Didn't Let Me Make More Than 3 Pages And I Had Subscribe And Pay And I Have Money So Yea :(

App can’t do anything useful, stay away.

You will be scammed out of your hard earned money, just like I did, I’m stuck with a 30 dollar piece of crap worth nothing for a full year.

Run while you still can.

I downloaded to give it a try and i had to reset completley my iphone 11 pro max because i got locked out of it. It kept telling me that my password was incorrect when I know it was correct. I had to call apple. BEWARE

Bruh how am I gonna make a game whit 3 slides also I signed in I thoght that fixes it lol but really how is anyone gonna make a game whit 3 slides how about watching an ad for more slides just an idea and I hope you read this

Needs a paid subscription to do something as simple as adding audio upon a button press. If I can’t even do something drop dead simple without hitting a paywall, why should I trust that this can make anything more than simple novelties?

I made a title screen and a screen to lead you to other screens. That took an hour to do when I went to go finish coding one of the buttons I couldn’t do it because I needed a fourth screen. I don’t have money to pay. What a waste of my time

1.Why do you have to buy an app purchases for pages?
2. Why can I not buy the purchase?
3. Add more options
4. Why when you preview it it shows the phone instead of full screen View?
I hope you see this review and improve things that need to be fixed thank you.

I am really disappointed in this app, not many options.

What is the point of this app if it is hard to use and you can’t publish it to anywhere. I did a lot of work, copy and paste it text from docs so my app would work, and I did all this work and I can’t publish it. Please don’t get this app, it’s a waste of time.

This app claimed to work seamlessly with playgrounds but it can’t even open up a blank document to view. There’s an error abort called(). This is bad code! Should fix this! There is not much you can do in the app. It is extremely limited, just 4 actions. Too bad, over simplified.
