Download the Anything iOS app to preview and test your mobile app on your phone.

​
Chat

Tell the agent you want a mobile app. You’ll know it’s a mobile project because the app preview shows a device frame instead of a full-screen view. 
Build a mobile app for tracking workouts. Users should be able to log exercises, see their history, and track progress with charts.

​
Screens

Screens are the pages of your mobile app. Manage them from the element selector in the top bar. Switch between screens, rename, or delete. 
Add a new screen called Profile
The agent handles navigation between screens. You can customize it: 
Add a tab bar at the bottom with Home, Search, and Profile tabs

​
Preview

The builder shows your mobile app in a device frame. Interact with it in the browser. Tap buttons, scroll, fill in forms. Some things won’t work in the browser because it doesn’t have phone capabilities (camera, GPS). For those, test on your device.

​
Test on your device

Scan the QR code in the builder to load your app on your iPhone via the Anything iOS app or on your Android in Expo Go.
  1. Install the Anything iOS app from the App Store
  2. Scan the QR code next to the preview, or log in to sync your projects
  3. Changes in the builder update on your phone in real-time
If something looks off, close and reopen the app to reload. You can also re-scan the QR code.
Camera, location, and barcode scanning only work on a real device. Always test on your phone for the full experience.

Native features

  • Camera — Let users take a photo and upload it
  • Location — Show nearby restaurants on a map
  • Haptics — Add a vibration when the user likes a post
  • Image picker — Let users choose a profile picture from their gallery
  • Audio — Add a voice recording feature
  • Maps — Show delivery tracking on a map
  • Barcode scanning — Add a barcode scanner to look up products
