# Thunkable Projects

A project is where your designs, files, and blocks combine to create Android, iOS, and web apps. 

## Public vs. Private Projects

### Public Projects

Public projects are included in the Thunkable Public Gallery for anyone to preview, download, or remix. If you create a public project, anyone in the Thunkable community can view it.

### Private Projects

Private projects can only be seen by their Creator. They are not displayed in the Thunkable Public Gallery. Private projects are available for Creators on certain Thunkable plans. To learn more about our plans, please visit our [pricing page](https://thunkable.com/pricing).

### Making Projects Public or Private

For Creators in which private projects are available, you can decide whether a project is public or private when you create it. To learn more about our plans, please visit our [pricing page](https://thunkable.com/pricing).

You can also change the privacy setting of an existing project. Click the gear icon in the upper left to access your app's [Project Settings](https://docs.thunkable.com/settings/project-settings) and use the switch to change the app's privacy settings.

## Read-Only Projects

Private projects become Read-Only projects when a Creator's [membership](https://thunkable.com/#/pricing) expires. Read-Only projects remain private and are not included in the Thunkable Gallery.

You can only preview Read-Only projects. Once a project has been switched to public, you cannot switch it back to Read-Only.
