Ship to the App Store without owning a Mac.

Floot is an AI app builder that builds your iPhone and Android apps in the cloud and submits them to the stores, so you can publish to the App Store without a Mac or Xcode.

What you get

Publishing to the App Store normally means a Mac, Xcode, certificates and provisioning profiles. Floot builds the native iOS and Android apps in the cloud and submits them, so you need only the developer accounts.

  1. 01

    No Mac, no Xcode

    Floot builds and signs the iOS app in the cloud and uploads it to App Store Connect.

  2. 02

    iOS and Android from one app

    The same Floot app ships to the web, the App Store and Google Play.

  3. 03

    Build from ChatGPT or Claude

    Describe the app in a conversation with Floot connected, or in Floot's editor.

  4. 04

    Push notifications

    Native push on iPhone and Android is a built-in service.

  5. 05

    What you still need

    An Apple Developer Program membership (US$99 a year) and a Google Play developer account (US$25 once). Store review is done by Apple and Google.
