AppsBuilder is cloud-based Italian self-service app creator designed to provide users with no coding skills access to tools to build native applications and HTML5 web apps. deliver them to seven different operating systems and distribute them on the major application stores.

Overview

AppsBuilder is a cross-platform tool that allows users to create, edit and distribute mobile apps designed for use on mobile devices like iPad, iPhone, and Android. Users can also create HTML 5 WebApps (mobile sites).[1]

Its services are mainly addressed to private phone owners and SME, and rely on a cloud-based system, with analytics allowing users to monitor in real time their application's rates and trends. The platform offers also several additional marketing tools to monetize mobile applications, such as QR code generators, geolocalized couponing, in-app subscriptions and the opportunity to join mobile advertising networks such as iAD and inMobi – to integrate banners into applications and get new revenue streams.

Users can either follow the submission process by themselves or have the firm handle the process for them. The firm has also developed a white label content management system (CMS), for users who create multiple log-in accounts to manage their clients’ applications and customize their layout.
